Garden-Phase2B


Well Saturday was here, and so was Rich, bit later than planned due to running round after some phantom parcel (that was his excuse anyway;). Although the weather could have been better after a cup of coffee we were raring to go and things started off much better. Although it was annoying last week spending time trying to decide the best way to go about things, at least now we had a plan and we could get straight into it. We got the first panel between the posts we managed to get done last week just to give us some added enthusiasm, and set about the next hole and post. I had borrowed a big hammer drill with a chisel from my dad which made it much easier to get through the path. Things were going pretty well, untill we got to the last post! Rich had got about a foot down with the hole when he decided that there was a root in the way that he couldn't get through with the spade. When we had a closer look though it turns out that it was not a root but some kind of cable! What it's for we're not sure but we think it may be a mains supply, so we don't really want to mess with it (although I did try an get Rich to poke it with a metal pole while standing in a puddle!) but it's right where the post has to go! By now it was gettin darker again and the weather was damp and so were our spirits so we decided to sleep on it and decide what we're going to do! Overall it was a much better day and if it wasn't for the damn cable we would have got finished. Oh well, Least we didn't go through it like we did in Richs kitchen!
