This is obsolete. Container now being used for toilet tank and the lid actually needs to be cracked to let air in @Timotheos
this seems obsolete @Timotheos

This task is now obsolete @Timotheos
Have now shied away from companion planting around the trees beside the flat due to difficulty with upkeep and pests such as rats and pigs destroying any large leafed fruit like pumpkins. Perhaps it's better just left turned to lawn. @Timotheos

Hey! Haven't had any issues whatsoever with any of the companion plants so far as I'm trying to pick things that animals will hopefully (mostly) steer clear of. But if I do have problems I'll cross that bridge. From what I've read chokos will make an awesome companion plant as it rambles along the ground and rodents and possums generally won't eat it! Defs will give it a crack. So far have pumpkins, zucchini, nasturtiums and several other small native grounds covers. Haven't had much luck with planting over by the toilets (except for nasturtiums) as it's too wet and shady. Will Have a look to see if I can find something suitable when I'm in town next. A native forest type ground cover like the one growing near my front door would look really nice.
No worries. I shall leave it for you

@Timotheos - I believe this was destroyed due to exposure and was thrown out with the other ruined tents from the upper shed.
What dis? It sounds like something that could be knocked over pretty quickly so let me know if I can help @Timotheos
Eric running like a dream
In light of my post/changes in the other Visitor's Shower job, I think this can be canned as we really only need one project task @Timotheos - will chuck it in to review for ya.
Considering how long the first one is lasting we'll probably only need to swap between the two. You can probably scrap this job if you want to de-clutter @Timotheos
Since the ride is working well I've had no reason to follow this up so you may want to scrap it @Timotheos. Plus we probably don't need 3 push mowers
Done!
@Timotheos - I am perfectly happy with the way the IBCs are at the moment and just very lightly chlorinating them occasionally instead. If in future other people want to regularly use those IBCs, we'll end up having to pump water from the creek - which is fine but whether they're covered or not will need be treated anyway. Additionally, the water is perfectly fine for washing and bathing and it's not difficult to bring drinking water in. Thoughts?
Hey @Timotheos. Seeings I've had nothing but issues with my gas hot water system and outdoor shower - if we're still wanting to construct a private shower for visitors I think it will be best to do something separate. Mine works for my needs but is extremely difficult and complicated to use. I constantly have to repair it and it's just not suitable for common use.

Done @Timotheos
I'm assuming there's not going to be any blockages left so I've moved this for review @Timotheos
I heard the mower is no longer working again? @Timotheos

this is done. There's a long enough hose for fire contol too
Happy to call on friends with drones for this. Experienced with sound/video editing and have full Adobe suite. Would be fun :)
Saw a family a couple of days ago run across the driveway. Up to you how you'd like to tackle it. My uncle is a professional hunter and would likely hunt them for free as he's into that. He has worked paid culling jobs before and doesn't live far away so it's a legit option. I'd be happy to have him stay at mine. Let me know if you'd like me to contact him.
Bought a sticker from Red Bubble to fit Gorgon's fuel cap. Usually their stuff is decent quality.
Sadly, since my original foray I have not been able to find any parties interested in removing the tank.
This will be done by the end of the weekend. I am also putting an outlet pipe on the original which may alleviate the condensation issue somewhat.
@Timotheos - were is Aster?
I saw this in the shed. I think I have an SD card from a camera I no longer have. I was going to borrow it just to see what runs around on the flat at night. Will report back on SD card so don't go buying aything yet.

@Timotheos This is one thing that I'm still not sure about. Definitely more for just doing a permenent structure as that is actually easier. Only problem is where to put it now the tanks are down on the flat? The obvious place would be next to or near the tanks. But then if it's a permanent structure and I decide to shift, there will be a random shower structure on the flat which might be weird? I don't care about it being close to me and other's using it as that's convenient for me but might not be ideal for others?
I see so many people with half full paint around properties. If you have any leftovers could we possibly use that rather than purchasing new paint? Unless you have a specific colour in mind of course.
I was considering just cutting some timber to size and laying it over the top as they would make a good standing outdoor bar. I will fashion some 'rings' to place over the intakes to filter debris from the downpipes.
Have spoken to a plumber and solved the issue with the odd sized downpipes. Purchasing materials Monday and hopefully done by next Wednesday. Just in time for wet season.
Have purchased a pressure pump. Picking up fittings Monday. Hoping to have done by Wednesday next week.
