Painfully slow progress.
So...meanwhile back at the bathroom tower, today we continued to dig out the drainage trench. Without motorised equipment, like a Bobcat or something similar, these two middle aged men are having to do it by hand and using a spade no bigger than a child's beach spade.The trench needs to be deeper than the foundation trenches that we have already dug so that it can drain the rainwater away from the uphill slope behind the tower before it gets into the foundations. We have been chipping away at it but today pretty much got it finished.
