Terrain update

I decided to even out the grassy/weedy area near the fence (on the left), the day before the snow fell.  I dug out the clumpy areas first and then set about transporting earth from nearby.  The arrow in the picture indicates a mound of earth that wasn't being used for anything else (right near the tall hedge).


The wheelbarrows had long gone, so I had to improvise with a corrugated plastic box and Lindsay's cycle.  It took more than a dozen trips backwards and forwards, balancing the box on the back of the bike.  Once there, the earth was raked in to cover over any low points.  The sandy area to the left of the white line, may be used later on, if more lanes are needed.


It is now Thursday and there is still a couple of inches of lying snow, although the surface underneath is not frozen.  We'll be along there on Saturday and Sunday to see who (if anyone) turns up.

Dave.
