Digging holes!

Lots of holes have been dug in the last few days including one that coincided with our water main...not a good combination but quick thinking by the builders, and a plumber on call, got us back on in a couple of hours with not much of a flood.  Anyway now the foundations for the carport extension (TV room/snug) are nearly prepared for concrete.

Whoops! the water main

Foundations nearly ready
   

We then had the brilliant idea that digging a hole in the garden could be just what we needed as wildlife is really important to us and, at present, there is no water feature.  So a pond is emerging and it turns out that our great mini digger driver is a dab hand at ponds so we have left the design very much up to him and a few shouts of "bigger bigger" from the builders - we are loving what they are creating!!

The new wildlife pond takes shape

Finally, not to be outdone, the dog dug a huge hole in one of the borders - after moles or mice I guess.  He was so muddy he had to have a bath - good job the water is back on!!
