So Close

I spent last Friday and Saturday over on Mull working my way through the jobs needed to get our building warrant and it all went wonderfully quickly, so that by Saturday morning we only had the drains to dig. The digger arrived lifted the arm to start digging and.....whoosh....hydraulic fluid sprayed out everywhere....and that was the end of the digger.

Not being able to face digging a 75m of ditch in rocky ground by hand I'm in the process of organising another digger, which is stuck on Iona at the moment so it may be a few weeks.........

The photo was taken down at the beach by the house, with good equinox gales to whip up the sea.
