My humble house

The Kebun

zorahak

I have not blogged for some time like 3 weeks now because since going back to Muar , have not had 1) time 2) nothing much to report really on the progress of the house .

I will have a discussion on the house in Muar with the contractor this Saturday in terms of what else needs to be done for the house . Tentative date for moving the furniture from PJ to the house will be in January , 2024 . I will have some time then as I am planning to take annual leave from work.

Encik Rahman clearing up the kebun at the back of the house . Open fire burning is not allowed because it adds to the air pollution index and the Town Council if found out will hand out fines to people who do open burning . However, Encik Rahman says if small open fire burning then this should be ok if no neighbors report to the Town Council ( Majlis) . You can see the garden shed in this short video . The garden shed I bought at Shopee but the workers assembled it and put the shed on a concrete slab. This makes the garden shed on a higher level than the ground which should then mean that if it rains heavily ( which it does often ) then water will not be able to seep through into the garden shed.
The small open burning fire behind the house

The photo shows the back of the house with the French doors . On the left is the Rumah Kebun . I need to fix the grills and wired CC TV to make the house secure as this is Malaysia , sigh . At the moment , because the house is empty , this is fine .

I have to seriously think of landscaping the garden . Toying with the idea of a vegetable garden or potager ( kitchen garden ) and a chicken coop . So lets see what next year brings .
