Ooops

It was another early start. The builders arrived a few minutes before the truck carrying the blocks, a pallet loaded high with cement bags, and eight tons of sand. This was all offloaded without incident, and after a bit of finishing off yesterday's trenches, another truck arrived to take the digger away. The chaps then started to move all the materials into the back garden.

This is where it went a bit skew-whiff. Cutting one of the cargo straps it sprung back and broke our front window. Obviously, this can be repaired, but they were so apologetic that it was hard to even raise ones emotions as far as "mildly irritated".

As the Gorse Fox writes, the trenches are now being filled with concrete and laser lines are painting verticals and horizontals across the back of the house.
