Day 732 Champers old fruit

10th August 2019

An early trip to the recycling centre meant that I could clear a lot of rubble that I had removed from the wall. I then drove to Westbury to purchase some Romney Red path gravel.

The guy in charge of the gravel was interesting, he was telling me about his father’s involvement in the war, in particular Dunkirk. I enjoyed listening to his story, I felt his pride for his father, and share concerns about the uncertainty that we find ourselves in today.

I filled up the lower step with the gravel, and bedded it down hard, this was the last part or the garden project, and boy was I glad about that!

I filled the small gabion on top of the wall with stone, drilled holes for the house number. The last job was to fit it, now there is no excuse for not getting the deliveries correct.

My bistro set arrived, so now there is a place to sit, enjoy the rain and get wet.
