The turf at our patio is not really looking good, in the sense that the grass doesn't seem to be growing well. I looked at it and thought hard, and then decided that it's probably time to do away with it.
So the plan is to remove all the soil and grass and tile the area so that we can place a small furniture set consisting of a table with probably 4 chairs. Cool right? I analysed the concept and grew to like it more and more. In this way, we kindda extend our living room to the outdoor, and we could use that place as a tea area or Alfresco dining. Laptop can be brought outside for a change of environment when we surf the net, since we have wireless connection at home. The children can do their favourite painting there. In addition, we will have an alternative place to host our friends, since our living room is not exactly very big. We'll still be keeping the water feature, but I told my hubby that his plants all ahve to go. I designated another place to grow all the plants and flowers, and we'll work along planting them in troughs and "standardized" looking pretty pots, and then we'll probably stack them on a plant shelf. Better than having this grass patch that is not growing well and really, the area cannot be "used" other than growing some plants which can't grow well due to attacks by creepy crawlies and the limited nutrients in the soil.
We've contacted our friendly ID and after making our choice of the type of tiles we wanted, the work will be done next week.
I can't wait!
