Moving The Dirt

Brett has been a busy little beaver in the back yard moving all (12 tonnes) of dirt around!

And now:













There is still a lot of work to go (another delivery on the weekend for starters) but it will be worth it!

  3. Reinsey - Yes found the bolts thank goodness! It is a massive job we are getting there but it wont happen over night LOL but it will happen!

    Cass - Thanks - we are going to cut into the slope a but more (sewer line) then we are going to retain it have have garden beds and a large feature wall on it then have the lower part as grass lawn for Lulu. Both sides will be paved and pebbled.

    I was totally devo that the block wasn't on!

    I am still waiting for things to arrive and have most stuff done before I put the pics up.... All in good time!

  5. Yep pebbles and paving ourselves - Brett has done it before at our last place.

    The back will be charcoal link block wall (same stuff you get at Bunnings).
