Fencing complete

Our lovely new neighbour has finshed all our fencing, we have lapped and capped for the sides and slats made from very hard wood for the front returns,looks great and now to paint the sides a grey colour and white for the slats,,. we also had a go at steps for the front in blocks, will hopefully finish the front retaining wall this weekend,,,wont b too long before plants and grass. here r todays pics

Still Landscaping

We truely didnt realise how long it takes to do all  the landscaping, very hard work but also very gratifying, we finished down our off side last weekend, we will start the front retaining wall this weekend, i actually bought our first plants yersterday,, hope they live with all the wind we,ve had, the concrete diveway was partially pulled up and will b re poured this week sometime, thats why the frontwall is only being done now, they will also have to come back and colour tint it,alot darker,,they couldnt have got it so wrong if they tried to ,,,not happy,here r todays pics

Up, down lights installed

Had to post these pics,,night shot of our new lights,,,my first thought was that it looked like the tash mahal lol,,,certainly brightens up the front yard,,,yes u can see all our dirt lol
