Remember this is how it used to look:
a year ago
August 2011
We are not connected to mains sewage and therefore have leach drains. At the moment they're
towards the back of the block and we can't do much with that bit of land, except grow grass on it, so Rod decided to put new ones in directly behind the house seeing as that's where the grass area is going to be anyway.
so here's a view of the retaining wall Rod and his band of merry helpers built and all the leach drains covered over with sand where one day we'll have beautiful green grass to run around on and enjoy :-)

And this past Saturday, the merry band of helpers (Paul Byl, Marcel, Mike and Justin)came to help barrow the concrete into the patio area. Tony from Rod's work helped out
with all the screeding and technical sides of working with concrete
And there it is! All poured and ready for honing......so eventually it will look something like this:
