I used to have a mounting block/log outside my gate but it encouraged people to come into my driveway to hang out as I had so thoughtfully provided them with a seat (particularly good for drunks who struggled to make it home without stopping off), but not a bin so they left a lot of rubbish so I moved it back inside, and with Jess it was easy to park her on the flat of the driveway and clamber up on the little bank at the side and leap , but I'm going to need something better for Niko and I want to start getting him used to standing next to things and having me up above him.
So I either need something really light and easy to bring in and out regularly, or something not desirable/difficult to pinch or fixed down, no use as a seat, tall enough that I don 't have to clamber on board (I'm 5'4" and expecting him to reach at least 15.2), and I'd prefer if it's not brightly coloured so it doesn't grab anyone's attention. Any ideas welcome, extra brownie points if you have a picture/example, as always I'm happy to build something
I've been thinking I could square the bank off with retaining boards at the front, or perhaps put in 3 staggered posts 5-6" diameter to step up on or something else.....
