How about a pool ?

The SS cable is permanent. The pool deck itself is the fence as its 1500 high. The SS cable is just like normal balustrade for decks more than 1 mt from the ground. The only area we required " pool fencing" was the connection between the house verandah and the pool deck. Because there is decking and cable and stairs all in close proximity to the pool gate, I had to run the glass right down ( within 5 mm) to the deck floor and also hang it over the edge of the decking by 5 mm so no spiderman kiddies can climb over the stairs and get a toe hold between glass and decking boards. PITA but anything 10 mm wide is considered a toe hold, like the head of a bolt - I kid you not.

Good job D. What I want to know.......... where is the mobile coffee cart/built-in cooler allowing you to stay immersed within the inviting waters and yet still enjoy a refreshing hot or cold beverage........................ without having to drip water into the house.

Derrilex it looks fantastic, great selling point too if you ever go that way, I would buy a house with something like that over a full size pool. ...and what Jeff said :D

At the risk of been flogged ( if she reads this) the wife fetches a mean beer. As far as the coffee goes, iced for sure, fetched in the same manner as beer  :rofl: :rofl: :P

I thought that was the case........ but it's far more entertaining to observe the risks associated with "making you say it".... p.s. have to confess to enjoying a similar such arrangement myself. The Little One receives a txt from me when I've finished at the factory and about to head home. This is the all-important signal for her to transfers a few coldies from the fridge section to the freezer so they are at the perfect point just prior to the first snaps of freezing (assuming I get a decent number of green traffic lights). 2nd wave beer we call it. Chilled to just prior to frozen

Popped into see Mr & Mrs D today, and all I can say is wow, that pool is every bit as good as the photos!  Amazing deck, and it just flows into the house.  You are one luckyman D! Thanks for the coffee, it was fantastic.  Sorry about the kiddy going ferral!  Can't take them anywhere!

You call that feral ? I thought they were little angels Lacehim. I'm just glad the dogs behaved themselves  :D. Seriously though, our pleasure mate, anytime.
