Each time we thing the garden will do, then there is always more. 2 more runs to the tip yesterday. Ds2 decided we need to remove some tree's big hedge bits from the side of the house. , also level the area off, this is in front of the shed, we need to buy some fence panels to make it a secure area, the tree's bushes were open & in the way. WE have got some membrane to put don, then will put gravel on the top, it will be behind the side gate area, we are going to put the old trailer tent there, we are going to turn it into a trailer & use it. There was a lot of digging, ropes & me in the car pulling, we finally released the last one ( the biggest) from the ground at about 11pm, so today will be another tip run once it cut into sections. Hopefully the front hedge will get trimmed to. Middle Ds wo0rked really really hard, I am proud of him, even got some local kids filling in a edge to the central lawned area in our area, It had been warn away with the bin wagon going over the kerb, so hopefully that will grass over in time, Looks better & got rid of our soil. Was there some roots in the tree, even part dug out it moved the car sideways when trying to pull it out. Problem is our tow point is at one side, the wrong side for this job, & the hedge was across from the drive ( which is sloped, with steps on the side), so we didn't have much room, as well as the low front bodykit. The rope was a bit short, otherwise we cold of pulled it from the rd more ( did with the 1st couple, but the further back they were the more hard work it was.
Youngest DS made a big start in sorting his bedroom out. Incentive for him is a new xbox360 & flat screen tv from his dad, ( his last one packed up.
I did several loads of washing. 1 load was a load for charity, it had been washed, folded & bagged, but was put outside briefly ( Youngest DS had brought it down & put it down to show me)& it got rained on overnight.
So far this week we have done about 5 trips to the tip, with more yet to do. Once the outside it done we can do more inside, although I am still working on the inside.
We have the new post for the side gate ( its a large double heavy wooden one) & the concrete, so next to buy will be the panels & posts, then the gravel.
