walls up and down

the engin­eer has declared my garden wall unsafe, the people on the other side have over the last 100 years been pil­ing soil up against it and it has no where for th water to drain through, so down it cam this week , delay­ing the build­ing works but all sorts of other things have been under way. i made use of them and their dig­gers to give the garden a good going over and have all sorts of new plants to go in and fruit trees to espalier against newly fixed wall. i appealed for very old bricks on free­share and instantly was offered 500 clean old bricks. .…. also asked for a bit of gut­ter­ing to invert and make a tun­nel for toads, a small new wall crosses the toads migrat­ory path so him upstairs sug­ges­ted a tun­nel, and a tun­nel they shall have.

Cameron and i were work­ing on a pro­ject over the week­end, more of which another time, then he helped me move trees about the garden.

today i have stopped using the crutches hav­ing decided they were mak­ing me look like a little old lady, so far so good, it is a little tender but OK.wallmoving-trees
