Diary of a Shed - 8 April 2004

Early days yet but the foundations are coming along. Today was 'filling in 3 holes with concrete day', which was 7 barrows of the stuff. I'll be glad when this foundation work is all done, but there are 11 more holes to dig and fill. Still, 17 have been done so the end is getting a little closer each time.

The pillars are created by putting 4 breeze blocks around the top of each filled-in hole and filling up with concrete to a string line. The tops are levelled by patting down with a small spirit level, until I can put it down in any direction and it's all level.

Ralf balancing a peg on his nose, one in his ear and chewing through a piece of rope, all at the same time. Douglas looks on in puppy wonder, not realising that his back legs have been removed and used in a tasty casserole.
