About Me

Lots of people are aware of the funny idiosyncrasies of the Australian language...... a common tip for visitors keen to sound like a local, add an “o” to the end of each word, a ‘servo’ is a service station, rego is the car registration, the bottle-o is the bottle shop and reno is renovation. We are renovating our home, in other words, “we’re doing some reno’s”! This is our attempt at a blog, a way to describe the journey of the reno’s, an extended tale that's taken us from our little flat near a beach in Sydney, to our little miners cottage in Melbourne, come to think of it... we might call it the “reno blogo”.

Bye Bye Bathroom

If in doubt – rip it out, the bathroom has gone, makes things tricky when people come to visit. If you need to go to the loo, the rule is, head to the garage, grab one of the funky foldaway pushbikes, then ride a block north to Sister Mel’s place, you can borrow her toilet! (Note: don’t forget to grab her spare key just in case she’s out – you don’t want to be riding a bike around Collaroy when you’re busting!)
