kids playground upgrade soon

we are looking forward to the better children playground soon, perhaps in 2 weeks' time.

2 days ago one of our regular contractor contacted us, saying a few set of very good condition children play set are available, free of charge, and asked us if interested to have a look, we told him since is free & good condition then we should not miss it.

then he sent them in Wednesday night, a set of see saw (metal one) & one animal shape swinging set, both are in quite good condition, we decided to accept these 2 & he was happily sponsored us by paying the previous owner a token of gift.

and now, few more sets still in the previous owner's place but as the size is bigger (include a kid's slide) then we are arranging a trip to view them ourselves & if decide to get it for our place, then we will need to pay a small sum of money to the owner & get a truck to bring them in, and for this we also check around for right person to fix all these at our kid's playground, we got to make sure these will be "planted" properly into the ground so that they are secured enough to be used.

we view this as good opportunity to upgrade the kids' playground as all this while we have been checking around for gov't fund for this project but couldn't see good progress, so now as the opportunity knock then we should just grab it, just spend a few hundred to get a complete kids' playground is just a very good deal!

another thing we will be soon doing is to get rid of those mosquitoes at the kids' playground, we have asked the same contractor (who is also our resident) to get many many lemongrass plants from his friend in Balik Pulau & then get his worker to plant them in the kids' playground, so that when Vista kids enjoying the play set, they won't be disturbed by these uninvited guests :)

will update further on this once things are ready.

thanks.
