the 'todays job' thread

[Stephen Blair]

Good day yesterday.

[Mick Dempsey]

Some lovely gear and some French fancys!

 

[Mark Bolam]

Bit of a slow burner for a good mate.

Doing a day a week with him helping for a few weeks.

Clearing about 300m of boundary to a 5 acre spread he has bought to open up views.

Overstood hornbeam hedge in front of ditch reduced to low poles.

Ditch full of bramble, blackthorn and utter shite cleared.

Worky Quad has been priceless on this job, taking the chipper in, pulling back leaning hornbeam and ragging tonnes out of the ditch to the landing.

Not work job related but after quite a few heavy hints last month, I received a fantastic ’Father’s Day’ present from the kids, a Tasmanian Tree Fern (Dickinsonia antarctica).
So this morning we cleared an unkempt, shaded shrub bed, which was bordered by broken concrete slabs, and replanted, manured, mulched and watered.
We then created a new border with the remains of the stone used in the construction of the bread oven.

I planted one of these ferns back at my old place in Lancashire  30 years ago, it is still going strong in the care of the new owner.
