Got my older kid to purchase this off Ebay for me, $89.99 + $11.90 postage
(I don’t have a credit/debit card…never used a ATM thingo)

We have a high front fence with gates and the top pad bolt is always closed so people have trouble just getting to our front door to ring the doorbell. It’s quite a journey (from upstairs) to go down the stairs, out the front door and up the driveway to open the gate only to discover it’s someone who wants to swap your power, gas, phone or internet.
Now all we have to do is look out the balcony window and talk to them over the intercom – no thanks.

Previous to this I tried out the ALDI wireless doorbell.

 

 

Mimosa Gazebo

 

Purchased from Bunning’s for about $800.

As soon as I saw this with its polycarbonate roof I said to ET…let’s buy that and she agreed.

Suffered some damage from the big hail storm but still dry underneath.

 

 

 Note how the sheets have a cell contruction, the hail peppered the outer surface but none went right through.
