Yeah they're a bit grotty, my neighbours where doing renovations/moving dirt and when we had lots of rain the whole place got inundated with dirt from next door and stained them a reddish colour. I did go over them with a pressure cleaner but it sort of needs something a bit more vicious I think to bring them back to being a nice sandstone colour.
They're made of cement with a lot of very coarse sand and little rocks.

edit
Whole place is a lot of maintenance though
Always weeding/watering, I'm developing a thing for cement statues and succulents because they don't need watering

You should buy that colonial style house Sushi, it looks awesome

Originally posted by Lews Forgot to say Stu, your place looked super serene. Looks like it would be awesome to just chill on the deck, as long as no spiders came

I spend a lot of time on this deck. Possibly why I'm so chilled out. Mostly

It's kind of a weird deck though, but a good size. One end (where I'm standing/typing right now) is a small room with the laundry sink/clothes washer... and also a toilet It's cool to have though, since I have an amp in here, hooked up to my laptop, running a couple of speakers and a sub wired up. Just cheap second hand ones (since they get left outside for the weather to eat/people to steal).

It's where I 'TA' from much of the time

We 'may' have the option to do so, when our lease runs out (which is next May). We'll see how things go this year. Last year was...random, but things are looking up, so fingers crossed

Wait.. So you're telling me you are chilling out on your deck on your laptop with the sun out and birds chirping and music going through your speakers?

I'm so jealous

Yeah I was going to ask. It looks so amazing, I figured it took a lot of work to keep it looking so beautiful. You're doing a good job

If I'm out here, then music is nearly always playing Just ask my neighbors

The sun has just gone down, maybe 5-10 mins ago. And all I can hear bird-wise are crows carrying on about something. Probably the Kookaburras, lol.

It's pretty sweet

Sounds amazing mate. I'm extremely jealous

Sounds like just the thing to help my anxiety problems lol. Just seeing the pictures of your and Lilith's places tonight calmed me down a lot.

On good days there are photo-ops too!

(not today, but we refer to this branch, just on the edge of the deck, as the 'photo branch')





Same spot for both of them.

Ha, missed this.

I know you like to wind me up

Go for the shot, if you want. Plenty of Kookas around.

It's a $100,000 fine per offense, as of last year (or 2008?) if you're caught though

Very cool Lilith. Looks like Zen Garden

Rent free, motherfuckers!



The cottage:



Niiiiice...

Lilith, your backyard is beautiful! You can have our birds...they keep shitting all over the fucking concrete surrounding the pool. We're putting a fake hawk up in the tree today to keep them away. Dirty fuckin starlings (we call them jew birds ).

^ ^ ^

that's probably one of the funniest motivational posters ever

That'll only work for a short time, until they figure out that it isn't attacking them

Well...fortunately the birds don't stick around all summer anyway. Apparently this whole "shitting in and around the pool" phase is temporary, so the hawk doesn't need to work much longer than that.

Also, to fortify your point: last year the birds attacked the shit out of the owl that was up and pecked it all to bits, lol. Nasty fcukers!!

Yeah, they shit all over the place here too

The hawk thing should work for a couple of weeks, depending on how smart Starlings are.

I wasn't home when Jimmy put it up, but he called to tell me they went apeshit, lol. I could hear them screeching in the background, a la The Birds.

LMAO. Success!

I want pics of this thing.

Yeah I'll take some tomorrow, lol.

Well that pretty much settles it; I'm moving to Australia.

Whaddya want? It's the style of the house. Makes for rooms with character on the second floor.

Touche.

I dunno, doesn't look as large in this picture. I guess you have to see it in context.
