and the destruction begins!!

There has been a slight delay with the building licence, uh oh!  After being told it would be issued it still has not, there does seem to be a slight problem and we think that it might be to do with the boundry fence.  Easily fixed but the pool company needs to just sort it out and it will be fine.

In the meantime, Steve has been a VERY busy boy over the last two weeks.  *Drumroll please* my veggie boxes are finished!!  Yay, Yay..

BEFORE

Laying out the blocks

 ooooo First row done!

 2nd row in progress

 He is doing it!

Finished and filled with sand and lovely little seedlings, Steve finishing paving as I write.  Will upload an AFTER photo when finished.

So, another 'job' Steve had to overcome was THE TREE!  Not just any tree but THE TREE.
Quite a pretty tree and looks harmless enough.

 It was what lurked beneath was the problem!! De De Derrrrrr

 Roots, roots and more roots.

 We ended up having to bring in some heavy duty lifting machinery to get the job done.

Finally, after 3 evenings, 2 men and a gazillion litres of water it was out!

Here we are on Sunday night and tomorrow is the big day as tomorrow is DIG DAY!  Yipppeeee.  We have done everything we need to do to prepare and have ordered everything that needs to be ordered.

Skip - CHECK, Soakwells & Lids - CHECK, Wood - CHECK.  We are ready.

Back tomorrow with daily updates.
