I won't bother with lattice, barrels are partially obscured from the street by fencing and if I put it up I would have to work around the lattice in order to turn the valves for water. If I can just make better use of collected water I'll be happy. We are at the end of our growing season so I should be cleaning up the garden and putting it to bed for the winter, just can't seem to get motivated. We had our first frost last week. Usually, our average early frost date is 1 November. I got almost no produce from garden this year, but there is always next year. Chookchook2 I've seen some of those decorative metal panels and they are gorgeous, sure hope your budget will allow you to get some before too long. Most of our state has been on fire for a good part of the summer. The closest is across the river from us and they have been battling it for almost a month. Some friends have had to evacuate repeatedly. We've only been concerned once, a small grass fire on our side of the river on a day we had wind gusts up to 65mph. Fortunately, it was put out quickly. Australia and New Zealand have both sent firefighters to help with the blazes. I can't begin to tell you how appreciative we are. The closest fire was fought for almost a week by local volunteers only as there were no other resources available. They were all on other fires. The Army National Guard (reserve troops) were called out to help with support duties and for the first time ever the federal Department of Natural Resources (DNR) asked for civilian volunteers to help with non firefighting tasks, cutting fire breaks, moving supplies etc.

Don't use the wall faucet variety, UNLESS you want to purchase a new top for the vanity. Or return the vanity. Pretty simple. The round hole was meant to have a faucet. Not a "cover" which may also allow water down under, which may also ruin the vanity as there will be no containing water lines beneath the little hole. Bad idea,

Hi, I'm looking on the NZ market for bathroom vanities that do not have the pre-drilled holes for tapware. Any ideas on who might sell a product?

Hi guys, we have this vent done yesterday, it seems to be a little bit awkward. This job has been done by a qualified building company. They drilled a hole at the blue circle first and found that there is a studs cross(two studs show in red) there, they leave a hole at the blue circle (but studs are not drilled) and then moved to the place where the vent is now in the picture(green circle), but they still had to cut a piece of the horizontal stud (green shade) off to put the vent on, I saw the top right corner of the vent was broken before they put the cover on, and they put a whiteboard to cover the blue hole as well. So my question is that is this fully compliant and did they actually make a mistake while doing this? I haven't paid so what the best practice I can do next. Thank you very much for your help!
