Richard has been begging for tradesmen to start immediately … but not succeeding.
The place is getting organised by the boys, but not by the builders.
Saturday, day 2
Reality has set in for Richard and Steven. They are determined today to have a plan of attack and get this project started. “Organisation is the key”.
All systems go Without any plans, it’s hard for the guys to know where to start; hence they call a body corporate meeting. Jamie is surprised this meeting has been called so early in the process, but he is more surprised with how quickly it is finished: dialup

They finally get someone out for a quote and are bargaining their way to a great price. Today’s to-do list has Jamie stumped … are they really calling in real estate agents already? Yes, that is correct, they are just about to sign on the dotted line. These guys don’t muck around.
Sunday, day 3 First thing this morning is assembling the Freedom wardrobe. Steven, like Monique, is very confident that getting this assembled is a cinch. Maybe it’s not quite so.
There are plans drawn up for what looks like an incredible ensuite, but will they have enough money? First things first, they are going to create their pallet, which will be done while browsing through Freedom.
The day has ended nicely, as they manage to haggle the builder down to $35 per hour. They then bolt off in their RAV4 to see The Lion King.
Monday, day 4 They were up at 6.30 this morning doing all the quiet stuff, making use of every spare waking moment. Then it’s off to start their new jobs … that is if they can get out of Manly and find their way.
