Re: Balcony Makeover
Yes on the bottom level. It was $2 per meter for the lights and $2 for the remote etc

Some of my plants.
This is lemon mint, it tastes divine.
Orchids are doing surprisingly well! They were hanging under a mango tree in SNV before I moved them.
Tomatoes. I’ll have space for two at the most, does anyone want one?
Lettuce is doing amazingly well. It looks so lush and green, I love it. And tastes great too.
This is a mix of pretty flowers- something is eating some of them but I’m not too worried, things are still growing.

Re: Balcony Makeover
Thailand has been raining cats and dogs past days as such it was difficult to do any construction for my balcony. The thing is contractors need to finish the stamp concrete on the parking area before proceeding with the balcony.
Finally on Thursday the sun was up and contractor quickly started job around 11am
As you can see in the video below concrete is ready so are the 4 pillars ready to be cast for the balcony.
The rebars making the 4 pillars is sitting on piles each pile is actually a group of 5 concrete piles bunched together and arranged closely like pentagon and then hammered into the ground 15m deep so its very strong.
At about 3.30pm when concrete is semi-cured it was time to stamp the concrete

Re: Balcony Makeover
On Friday the boys came to finish up treating the surface of the stamped concrete
Remember I previously mentioned wife wanted to change the stamped concrete colour at the back of the house from grey to orange, ok its done
Anyway looks like the balcony is finally going to take shape next week

My awesome piece of wood has arrived, this will be a benchtop running the length of the balcony wall.
It will be painted blue to match the awning.
I am more excited about this part than anything else, it’s going to be a radical change.
Almost done!
Who wants to come to the Balcony Opening Ceremony ??

I'll come to the '' tree planting ceremony '' you know,, the type of ceremony you have when you feel guilty about the 500 year old tree they cut down so you could
have a bit of wood in your home
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
