It's finished!!! The pool is finished!!

The pool is finished!!  Yaay, it looks fantastic too.  Jack and I had a swim and a spa this afternoon.  It was still a little bit cool but wasn't too bad.  I'm pretty sure it's going to be too cold to swim for his birthday though.

We had the pool installed by Stewart Pools and just in case anyone comes across this and is looking for a small pool, this model is called the Billabong 6.2 from Barrier Reef Pools.  It's a really good size and has a deep and a shallow end.  We got a spa bench and jets added as well.  Russell and Dan from Stewart Pools were just fantastic.  Russell was really great to deal with from the start and had some great ideas and was very helpful with working out the layout and design that would best suit us and then since then has been great with helping to co-ordinate everything and the job they have done is impeccable and they are both really nice, down to earth, easy to get along with guys.  Thanks Russell and Dan.  Dan's even a real life hero!!  He was on his way home for lunch one day and as he was driving along, he spotted flames in the window of a house so he pulled over, went and kicked in the front door to see if anyone was in the house then went around the side, climbed a fence, opened a window to make sure no-one was in danger before he was pulled away by the police!!Here's Jack dipping his feet in the spa end.  He was too chicken to get in though. (Note: the band aid, have you seen that ad on at the moment when the guy is in the spa, dips his head under and comes up with someone elses band aid hanging off his face, yucko!! I took the band aid off before he got in the pool, lol)
We are looking forward to many many years of enjoyment from our pool!!

I'll have more photos in a week or so once we've finished and furnished the patio area.
