Well done, must be a lot of hard work but I'm sure in the end it'll be worth it!

Well looks like i did a good job with the drainage, its rained for 2 days and it's not waterlogged.

very good Ross, I used decking too, it's really handy lengths and thickness and already treated. I was lucky last year as they were selling off a couple of pallets of it that had sat over the winter and a lot of it was twisted but I picked through it and got some decent straight bits.

for the mesh top I put in these posts to support the middle and joined 2 sections of mesh together with plastic coated wire so that the actual wooden frame could be bigger http://s668.photobucket.com/albums/v...t=IMG_2014.jpg
