this is a mini digger - it looks even smaller with a fat bloke on board ..!!

this hole is quite deep - the digger is also quite near the edge, be careful ..!!

a skill quickly learned is to start the waste pile as far away from the hole as is possible.

as with so many things in life - sometimes it's better to finish it off by hand....

this hole was to 'rejuvenate' the soak-away behind the septic tank.

   does anyone else get the impression that it's going to be the bane of my life ..?!?

after that hole, and some other earth movements and digging out the back

of the outbuildings it was time to level the area - and voila, errrrr - wait for spring, eh .?!
