REST WELL, OLD PERCH...

After more than two years of unrelenting service and tolerating many hours of abuse, the sturdy ole Perch is finally getting a well-deserved break (Sorry, Dave!). The iconic bar counter in the balcony has been retired, and will spend his days of leisure at the other end of our newly designed patio!

It took a long tiring day of re-potting (courtesy of Mr Green Thumb Williams), furious scrubbing (the ole guy certainly left his mark -- a stubborn red ring of rust!), and putting in a bit of new furniture ... But here's the new look! Nice eh??

















It's not entirely done... We're gonna get some nice wooden decking and couple of new candles to brighten the place up a bit, and perhaps a couple more plants, but here's to a future of being able to read a newspaper while hungover, and not having to worry about falling off the bar stool! :)

Its somewhat symbolic isn't it. the precarious high stool of single life is replaced with the comfortable, easy chair of marriage! :)
