Sun,

Yes, the pool will be a fair size 5x9 meters with a spa outside of that 5x9 space. I will have overflow on 2 of the long sides and on the shallow end of the short side. I'll also have two skimmers at the deep end short side and have salt water chlorination system so should be relativly easy to take care of.

The patio area within 1 1/2 meter of pool will be sandwash set at about 8 cm above a larger ceremic tile patio. I'll be using an "Antique Roman" type ceremic tile for the front terrace and larger 2 level pool patio area.

Wheels up on 15 March for trip back to Thai and check up on the project.

BTW, my 1 year, multiple entry non-imm (A-O) visa came back in my passport yesterday. Hooooa! Retirement visa from Immigration in Thai next step.
