Trying to be geeky

Popularity: 1% [?]

Its like I am at University doing Labs again.

It feels like it, mainly because the equipment can be a little “argumentative” maybe

Much fun and merriment with three days in Manchester doing some training. Its interesting, and has a real world application very soon.

So nothing like my Uni experiences then…..

You thought I had missed it, didn’t you?

So having finished the lawn, it was time to go back and actually finish the patio. One on-line booking with HSS, and Saturday morning I was picking up the pictured block splitter.

30 half bricks were required, and i think i only split about 60 bricks, and endlessly fiddled with chisels before the job was complete.

So, I now just keep getting told that I need to finish building the flower beds.

BTW. HSS give a ?5 discount at the end of your hire if you book online. apparently you need to print off a voucher to get it. Now I didn’t see that anywhere, but i did get my discount… (this time, I need to print off the i-don’t-think-it-exists-voucher apparently.)

Along with the nearly finished patio, I now have a lawn too! hopefully it will all turn into one colour in time. If anyone is wondering where all the water in West Yorkshire is going, then you are looking at it!

The raised beds are also under construction, just lots of breaking up and sieving earth to try and get the bricks and worst of the clay out now.
