Mrs and i went and drive around a new estate yesterday. There are hundreds of homes! I knew they were building stuff, but all you can see from the highway is half a dozen new places. All look at LOT nicer than our mid 2000's build, but they have no supermarket, no doctors, no daycare, nothing. Our block might be a bit smaller, and all the houses might look the same, but I think I almost prefer our "jack of all trades master of none" home than something really awesome 15 minutes drive away from everything.
EDIT: Super impressed to see how a house would jack off!
Interesting turn of phrase you have there
which part?
EDIT: FUCKING LOL
If it makes you feel any better, they're probably all still missing insulation, have single glazed windows, and have zero noise proofing
Sorry, whats that? I cant hear you over the roar of the freeway :-D
