This post is basically for the designers/builders. Excuse the formatting.

However, while I am here a few answers to some FAQ’s.  I have been amazed how many people feel free to challenge the design of things.   Mostly they ask about things that were not done due to compromise ( probably an error is retropsect) .  Maybe they watch too much Grand Designs. But often they are not giving us credit for knowing or thinking about how it would be done.   Whatever, if these don’t answer your queries then come and visit - bring wine. It’s not over yet but I am over it!

( And of course  some of the those who might have   challenged for the sake of improvement during the process unfortunately did not)

FAQ’s the deck:

Why is it so high?  To keep our feel wet in the 1/50 yr flood. ( last year we had one and it didn’t - but it could)

Why is it so big?  Its not that big really - just the height make it seem so.

Will you keep the pebbles ? - No it will be concrete cut to look like pavers.

Will it have garden in it ?  -  Why would you if you have 3 acres of garden?

Steps?  - yes there will be - come back later -  - Kwilla.

Edges ?  They meet council requirments - Murray knows them inside out.

Sleepers -? Yes they are.  Didn’t Murray do well.

The bit in the corner ? Fish pond.
