David has got well and truly stuck into digging out the front lawn to make the fabled pull-in for the car!
It currently resembles an open cast mine. First the turf sods have to be cut and removed and the topsoil separated from the subsoil and barrowed round to the back garden where David is building up the levels, and he is uncovering an assortment of large sandstone rocks and boulders in the process which he is shifting single-handed.
DIY rockery kit anybody?
Actually, some of these would make a Bouldery, never mind a rockery!
