I didn’t remember how heavy concrete blocks were until I had to move them. The first task was to separate the limestone slabs from the blocks, then transport them to the end of the path in my green cart. I stacked them against the wall ready for disposal next week.
Once this is done there is little work of me to do, but soon I will have the task of carrying bags of cement, floor levelling compound, plaster boards, and bags of plaster, up the side of a mountain, apart from that, job done.
Further down the terrace there are other builders doing renovation work, they have a dumper truck to do all their carrying.
That takes the fun out of gasping and wheezing, and also straining my undercarriage. I suppose my approach is a more vegan style of rubbish moving. No mechanical equipment, no skips and no bacon and egg rolls, the way I choose is for a more heathy form of death.
