The pool we got from my parents holds 5000 litres, so instead of buggering around with permits etc, we're going to get water carted to us, when we've got it in position. That's why I won't put it up yet, cos if I buy the water and DP comes back and doesn't like where I've put it...well, too bad, and I'll have to listen to his griping about it all summer long. He is the outdoor caretaker, to be fair, so I am merely a visitor and guest in our yard! He does ALL the work out there, so I can handle respecting his wishes for what happens out there. Dont' get me wrong, I get input into ideas, but once they're in place it's his turf!
Oooh, just read your post, Sim - I'm there! 1000 posts!
