Looks good, that, Speed.

Llike the idea of the lowered handrail for seating, it saves some space on the decking.
No need for as many plastic chairs.

Fits in quite nicely. Could have acorn end caps, you will have a low one for any gay friends to sit on then lol.

See the back of the house is in full sun at 2.15pm, nice that.

Very neat and a fine fit.

I'm glad the hammer didn't stay there, was really confused what it was for? :mrgreen:
