2 sides of the fence

In front of most houses kat OZ ni ada nature strip or if there isn’t a nature strip, a footpath.

So, kalau you beli rumah, kawasan rumah you bukan lah dari jalan sampai ke fence rumah belakang.

So janganlah pandai2 kamu membesarkan rumah sampai jalan tu ye, mau lah kena saman nanti, hehehe…

Tu sebab when we had the fence built, we/the fencer have to know where is the line demarcating our property and the council property/the nature strip.

selalunya ada tanda/batu at the side fence to show where it is.

Walaupun nature strip ni belongs to the council, tapi sebab kan it’s in front of our property, we still have to keep it tidy.

Dulu, The Other half bila dia mow and water the lawn, dia akan make sure dia mow and water the nature strip area jugak.

Tapi sekarang sejak ada the fence, dia mengelat cuma water our side of the lawn aje.

The nature strip tu dibiarkan kehausan and kekeringan.

Sebab water mahal mah kat OZ ni, hahahahaha.

And OZ ni kan negara kering so water kena lah ada catuan jugak.

So, the front of our house looks like this.

Tengok lah betapa bezanya 2 area itu!

Our side of the lawn looks green from the twice a week allowable watering that The Other Half does.

The nature strip pulak looks so brown and dead…..

The Other Half kata makin senang kerja dia sebab the nature strip is not growing, tak payahlah susah2 dia nak mow that area!

Memang dasar pemalas, hikhikhik…

And ini pulak the side garden in the front, ‘semak samun’ giler dah sekarang

We all cuma tanam 3 watermelon seedlings aje in the pot.

Pastu, tetiba keluar 2 other watermelon seedling from the mulch and The Other half tak bagi I cabut.

Sekarang tengok lah apa jadi, the watermelons have taken over everything.

Dah tak nampak the small white fences that we put there.

Siap dah menjalar pergi rumah sebelah and the tendrils dah attached themselves kat pokok bunga ros orang sebelah!

Kelam kabut lah we all potong and trim sebelum orang sebelah tension, hahahaha.

And the watermelons have started fruiting so maybe dah boleh makan kot in a month’s time.

Nanti bolehlah I buat pertandingan meneka berat buah tembikai ye, hehehehe….

But definitely tak seberat dua orang anak beranak ni lah kan .

Walaupun The Other Half dah makin kurus from his daily cycling during the week, he’s not doing his exercising to the extreme sekarang.

So, his weight loss pun is going slow and steady…..

With Miss 9 pulak, I don’t think she’s lost any weight, maybe she’s grown taller a bit so probably tu yang buat muka dia nampak bujur sikit and perut dia tak nampak kembung sangat, heheheh.
