The Grand Decking Project - Tea on Day 1


Well, coffee to be more precise. The rain started and stopped right on and after lunch, perfect timing. More progress has been made since and relations between the two builders are still as steadfast as the structure itself!

At the moment the vertical posts are sticking up quite far as we haven't yet cut them down to size. The neighbours are going to have a fit when they see it that high - at present it sticks up about 2 metres above their fence. It looks like we are actually extending the kitchen - I did consider moving the dishwasher and cooker out there and throwing a tarpaulin over the posts as a makeshift extension. May get a little cold in the winter though. The other option is to put a maching gun and barbed wire up there and build a little watchtower with searchlights. All will be revealed...
