So with lack of funds and no stone left - just a few scraps I decided on a cattle trough. Not the luxury look I wanted. But that's the OH's Xmas present sorted
!I'm hoping the shinyness/super silver look will dull down and with some pots I can make it look pretty. I managed to get some free pond lilies from FB page. They are holding in my other pond while I sort out position/pump and some supports for underneath to lift it off the ground a bit.
