Driveway

From THIS a day or so ago, to this... Some road base put down, and I feel better about the slope.

Brian, the engineer, came round this morning...

 ...to assess my site and recommend how they move forward in enclosing this area, as part of the house. He took a few photos and said he would 'organise Shane'.

Retaining wall taking shape

Hell of a lot of mess. It's amazing how much dirt can come out of a small hole.

Ashley will use the soil to level off the 'table' of the garden after the wall is constructed.

I've made a mistake - the steps should be twice as wide. Oh dear. What will Ashley say?


Ugliness. Power pole, container (at least it's not orange!), and piles of dirt!

I think the steps are too pokey and narrow for the size of the pergola, leading to the feature rainforest garden, like THIS, Dennis Hundscheidt's place.

Should be like this...
