The drain works well no water through the garage lately which is a releaf as the storms have been heavy lately.
The last couple of days have been spent building a roof over the caravan spare room, the wind this year has shreaded 2 polly tarps that were tied tightly over the van so while the brother in law was out for a break we decided a more permanent cover was needed.

On the strength of the last cattle sale we are going to get the first two bays of the BBQ area concreted soon so today I wired up some lights. I installed the sensor light on the garage and two LED flood lights in BBQ area, two more LED's are mounted and most of the wire is run for them.

First two bays now wired and all lights work. When the other bays are wired in the future there will be twice the wire in the box.

I cleaned out the surplus clay getting ready to concrete the first bay today. I was having fun plying with the backhoe so decided to start puting new colvets in the drive so I can form up a decent road into our house, now I will have to test my welding skills as the end pulled off the main lifting ram

good to see some hard work being done. I could watch someone else doing it all day!

The view at my place will alter in the coming weeks as well as I have sold almost all my orchid plants and the tunnel houses they resided in, so once they are shifted out I'll have more lawn to mow
