    That's being at home isn't it? Lovely. I'd love to do that and not worry about the consequencous?
    How to spell that?
    You make us all so envious, but never mind we're getting some sun here.

    Sorry, they were too quick for me getting off of it for me to capture them .... but I think they left a telltail sign of who the culprits were! They seem to like getting their feet stuck into everything they shouldn't, don't they?

    Nearly every bit of concrete that I have laid around here over the years has foot prints, dogs, but its a good way to remember them after they are gone.

    Morning Cookie. :)

    The channel nearest the garden in the first photo will have electrics / irrigation bits in it under gravel with solar lights set in under gravel, which will also serve as drainage from that patio, which will be about 14 square meters.

    The 'channel' you can see in the other three photos is actually the pathway from the kitchen door to the garden. That patio will be on two levels, the upper level being about 16 square meters with the deck stairs coming down into it but that area will be trellised off as the pump from the c19,000 liter underground rainwater cisterna (under the ballustraded patio in front of the house) and the water filter for the mains water is housed there in that area to the back.

    The pawprints will all be hidden under terracotta tiles.

    Oh, how sweet of them to make their own Hall of Fame for you! What a lovely Mother's Day present! Bet you weren't expecting anything that original, were you? Pity it has to be covered with tiles - can't you get glass ones where they put their signatures, Sis?

    The new kitchen patio is looking great now that that great big bread oven is gone. That is going to be a wonderful area when it is completed.

    No, Sis, no glass bricks sadly only terracotta tiles on top .... and I lost Skwij's footprint from in front of the bread oven because I wasn't paying attention when they were demolishing it and off it went and I wanted it as his gravestone! :(

    Hello Glenda, not sure I know you and if so I have not welcomed you to GC. ... so welcome and enjoy the forum.

    We found out little black and white one in a carrier bag by the rubbish bins a couple of hours after he was born almost two years ago. He had a sister who sadly died as she was a tart and a half and got run over coming home from one of her night ventures, bless her. xx
