The earth moved

Got home and decided that as the skip is going tomorrow I'd get the last few things sorted out, so I stained the gravel boards, put the tools in the shed, took the lawnmower out of the dining room and then had the bright idea to try and move soil from in front to the tellis to the vegetable patch.

Cubic Meter of soil weighs about 1.5 tonnes.

I did 7 wheelbarrows full of soil - thats digging it up, shovelling it in the barrow and then shovelling it out again. I'm sure its good exercise - which is just as well as I have many more barrows worth to move. Just not tonight.
