Nam is in lockdown since saturday. I am one of the few lucky ones to be considered a critical service so I have to work albeit from my home.
Its not that bad to be confined to a home. I have a 980sq yard of which 500sqm is grass. My boys and the dogs are sorted.

Your yard looks bigger than 980m2
Mine is also 980m2 & I don't have that much open space.
Who chose the colour scheme for the house?

Its 987sqm yard. I think the pictures make it look much bigger - see the google earth pic
The colour scheme was supposed to resemble like the first attachment.
But I trusted a colour blind contractor.
Now it is what it is.

Thanks Henri.
Partly due to the rain (had in excess of 300mm above the average rainfall this year) and partly due to the irrigation system.

That's why I paint out samples for clients.
One client I ran out of windows as we used different combinations of colours on the window sills.
On one job I spent R1280 on 1 liter samples - they eventually kept the wall colour they had & only changed the trim colour...

Spare a thought for the English who probably needs to watch reruns of the RWC during their lockdown...
