Aye well, the threat of the rolling pin has had no effect!
Ric do u have a pond? What do I need? (Not for the angels - but don’t tell them that!)

Filter
Stones, rocks for bottom?

Would it be loads of work and will I regret it when I’ve less time on my hands?

I’d need to measure. Can’t remember. About 5 feet by 4 feet and I know it’s two and a half deep.

Depth was main concern, you could either filter it or plant it out heavily like mine was.

Mine is a wildlife pond - in the ground, used to have a pump just to turn over the water but the pump has recently stopped working. So I am trying a still pond this year, let's see how that will work out for the frogs and toads...
