  1. The main objective was to dig up some test holes to find out where it is feasible to dig a trench to plant a new hedge (to cover a not particularly picturesque fence).
  2. The test holes project was not overly successful (too many bricks and roots!) but at least we found out that digging a trench was not the simplest and easiest option.
  3. It was a bit risky to hand Kaska a pickaxe but thanks to vigilant supervision by Gus ( Pauls dog) no one was hurt
  4. Arranging the heavy logs into a barrier was a fantastic lower back and upper body workout.
  5. Driving the wheelbarrow up and downhill was as fun as a motorbike ride through a hilly area but safer and more environment-friendly!
  6. As a result we left the place a bit tidier than it was when we encountered it this morning.
