Can't get the hang of this. Checking to find out if I've enabled comments. Put me out of my misery. Any comments on the gem below?

Let's start at the beginning

So here we are somewhere beyond the water works, masters of part of what we survey - or at least we thought we were. Don't look for us, we're shy. The car isn't even ours, but it adds a nice touch.

For those of you whose horizons are bordered by those two oceans, this is NOT a cemetery plot. This is a residential plot - high cost, thank you very much.




Now, for a view from the back to the street:
WOW! I like this panoramic view better. But cast your eyes up to the first picture and imagine a fence from left to right, low wall of hydroform blocks, topped by decorative wrought iron posts up to two metres, with two driveways and (of course) two gates. On the front left behind Gate One, a guest cottage and further back to the right behind Gate Two, the house. Behind the house a spacious, well appointed insaka, or lapa to you viewers from the south. Next to the insaka a real swimming pool, not one of those splash pools found hard by some game lodges which can't adequately accommodate traditionally built ladies like myself and Mma R. And the crowning glory - a fish pond. Not one of those feng shui aligned pools with temperamental little decorative fish. A serious pond stocked with bream and mirror carp for consumption, but decorative.


Imagination won't run to that. Watch this space. And take note of that container. It features in upcoming posts.
