It's Alive!
So, work has finally started! After initially thinking I had purchased a fully excavated site, 2 days and 700 tonnes later, I understand why everybody says ground works are the worst part! That is of course except for the opportunity for me to spend 2 days having a great time driving a 9 tonne dumper. ?
Slightly hairy moment when I bumped a tree, showered myself in apples, lost the use of the brakes... Spotted an apple had wedged itself under the brake pedal as I was rolling downhill!
One of the labourers has been assigned duties of chief Goose Wrangler... The Neighbours Geese and various other wildlife are very used to having my plot as their afternoon grazing ground and they aren't best pleased with my arrival. Funny they have their schedule though, 1pm every day they come wandering over in single file for a snack!
Still, 4 days work and I am now the proud owner of something that more closely resembles a building site, with completed footings.
