Day eight

Last night I had a re-think.

I decided that I would tidy up the site before continuing levelling the pond.

It would give me more space and I’d be able to get closer to the house side of the pond.

I normally work in a tidy, orderly and safer manner but this time I think my enthusiasm got away from me.

Having picked up and disposed of all the rubbish, I then moved all the tools that I no longer needed.



With the aid of my trusty sack trucks I brought up the remaining bags of sand from the drive.



Next, I started to get rid of the discarded gravel by wheelbarrowing it to the top of the garden. I’ll spread it later and you wouldn’t know it was there.



Now for the dumpy bag of clay soil. I shovelled three wheelbarrows full and transported them to the top of the garden too.



After an hour my right shoulder, the one I’d dislocated a while back, started to ache.

Time for a coffee and catch up with Mrs Snippets me thinks.

                                                               ☕️

I’d only worked for just over an hour and as the footy starts at 12:30 a timely break is in order.

                                                               ⚽️

I feel so much happier now and will shift the mud after the match.

Tomorrow? Well! Full steam ahead. (Yeah right)
