Turf, turf and more turf!




I have been doing a series on home improvement, especially as we work on our pool area, for those who have been following, take a look at our huge effort this weekend. I have never done so much manual labour - 7 hours one day then 3 hours the next.
Poor Joey had the raw deal of wheelbarrowing countless soil loads up a narrow plank to the elevated pool area, then of course doing the same for the turf. That left me laying all the turf, cutting to size and everything all in this ridiculous heat of 36 degrees!! Madness really...but it is done and although my body is still screaming at me, it looks very good and the best part is still getting to enjoy our surrounds for some hot weeks to come. A big thank you to the wonderful Biri's for your generous afternoons assistance, sorry we were a bit weary by then x
