    Use timber posts & gravel boards, and you'll be replacing them again in ~10 years.
    I'd suggest using concrete posts & boards - They will cost slightly more, but will outlast you and the next owner.

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.
