Rush Time

This week is both exciting and stressful as we had to finalize the electrical and the A/C location and stuff. 

We finalized the upgrades to the electrical...
  1. Downlights to the common areas - wiring and getting it ready with the installation of downlights.
  2. Two sets of powerpoints per room
  3. Data cabling
  4. External lightings
  5. Aerial antenna to get the HD channels.
Hopefully we covered everything

The Aircon location was also reviewed and had to made quick decisions since the blokes were already installing it. 

We got the quotes for the landscapes.. and we gotta look for alternatives... and see if the quotes are reasonable. :)
