Nothing directly over the pool but still plenty of greenery in the garden

Looks great! So nice to take on a mature garden too, takes the hard years out of it and makes it so enjoyable! (Says she with serious 1 yr old garden brain and money drain occurring!)

Nice one, love how green it is, I wouldn't have expected that in Gawler.

Thanks Jo :)


Gardening isn't really my think so hopefully maintaining it wont be too bad - or I guess I can pay someone :lol:

Thanks OE :)

There is a very large water tank in the garden and fixed watering system which is obviously working as it was a pretty dry winter. I'll just have to make sure it stays that way :lol:

Gawler is a lovely place to live. Large country town.

We used to take the train to the city,as it was cheaper than running the car and paying for parking.

Enjoy

May have spoke too soon :(

Heard that they may be a problem with the LMI so got to wait until next week to see if we're all good (hopefully if nothing else goes wrong). Feeling gutted :(

There may be copious amounts of alcohol in my not to distant future :(
