Some digger action

With rain forecast and looming clouds, we were uncertain if the digger would be able to come today. Thankfully with some luck and a few prayers, the rain wasn't too heavy and we were all go for digging. Dave politely warned the neighbours that they may be awaken by some excavating but they weren't too fussed.

Dave got up early and removed some panels from the fence where to new brick wall will go. It will be on the fence line.

The digger removed some old stumps from the back end of the house which took him about 3 minutes opposed to 3 days by hand. Then dug a massive trench where the brick wall on the boundary is going to be. He actually wet down a lot deeper that in this picture below.

He used this cool tool to dig the new stump holes saving us soooo much time and back breaking labour.


We hired a skip for $350 where he dumped all the extra dirt.


Sammy is just loving all the action and has been outside watching pretty much the whole time.


A few more pics.








I'll be back with progress pictures after it is all done for the day. Sounds like he will have to come back another day to finish because the skip is almost full.

Cheers,
