thanks :grin:

I'll plant it after work today but still not sure what to plant. I like the resort look idea but still want some edible things. it gets full sun from about 2pm and can be very windy any ideas?

I'm planing to use all blue barrel plastic for the chair part so have been trying to plastic weld. I need a bit more practice (messy) but very strong

But it's slow about a meter an hour. Hoping to look at some real plastic welders tomorrow.

Yep, I would choose burning my fingers for hours rather than housework anyday. Sorry Emily, Nat made me say that :D
