Took a while, but finished my firepit area. I forgot to take the 1st before photo of the demo but got one from the real estate photos before we purchase the house. Excuse the gnomes 🙂
There was a pond, that the previous owner filled up and planted a lemon tree. Unbeknown, he filled that pond with 80% rubble and 20% sand, plus the pond was lined with concrete, so what I thought was a 1-day demo, turned into 4 weekends, as I couldn't fit any bobcats or kangas in.
 
A lot of cursing the previous owner from this point on.
Beautiful concrete lining and some parts were 40cm thick.
Garden Wall from Boral/Midland Brick. 10 to make a circle. Got a 10kg tub from a washing machine that fits perfectly, allowing me to empty any ash after fires.
Finished. Finally. Filled the area with blue metal. Capped the ends of the brickwork with pine sleepers that have been stained. Added some chairs from Kmart and Bunnings.
