Well it is ages since i was on this great forum ,but i have been busy decorating ect ,but i have just finished some decking [its 16ft 7" long & 11 ft wide ] it took me weeks to dig out the footings for the support posts ,as i discovered that under the soil there was a old base for a concrete garage,i also have finished a little oriental garden that i made from some used timber i was given [hope you like it] i got the idea from looking at pictures on this forum hope nobody minds,i still have a long way to go about about 45ft of blank garden ,i cant wait to get some grass ,so the grandchildren can run riot ,i will post some pics of what i have done later today ,please feel free to comment good or bad ,its the only way i will learn , by the way the decking is fully protected so it should last for a long time ,hope you like what i have built so far ,last September it was a complete mess ,no good rushing [ha ha ]thanks for looking ,

This is wonderful.
Does the decking get slippery in wet weather ?
It looks very attractive.
