Tuesday 15th of November 2016
Another overcast and damp morning - but no rain today - so the ground might dry up during the day ?
I decided to dig a section of the rockery that is a bit bigger than half of what's left - starting at the front - the soil was wet and heavy - slow going.
I roughly estimated 20 barrow loads for today - but it is was it is.
Gradually the soil dried up as it got deeper and all done for today at 15.30.
The whole area now looks like the Somme battle ground - puddles - sludge - bits of slate - it can only get better from here on ??
Jackie helped to hose the paths while I swept with the heavy yard brush - All tidy before dark - great.
The pile of muck is now massive and we can only just get Jackie's car out - Mine would be multiple shunts to get out !!
A fine day tomorrow - I aim to finish the big dig - take levels - dig off any high spots - arrange for the Grab Truck for Thursday if they can ?
NEARLY THERE !!
Mike.
