For anyone (besides mom :-) wondering if they do bull fighting in Perth: They don't. The bull shot was taken at a Rodeo at El caballo, half an hour drive east of Perth.
The backfilling has taken place and also the pencil compacting (compacting the 15 cm of sand directly around the pool) has been done. We are now waiting till the fence will be put back. Some photos (we are then up to date till today, July 25th :-):
