Crack of Dawn stuff

Ok well maybe it wasn't the crack of dawn. But it was early and I was there, ready to work! We were under time constraints as we were going to a surprise birthday party for Quinny (those parties you just can't be late for!) so Bikeman, Pops, The Friendly Prussian and my good self worked at a cracking pace. Was going quite well til one of the blocks decided it couldn't hold it's concrete at the back and as fast as we filled it up it was pouring out. Bit of scoria behind the wall was able to stop the leak and we could continue on our merry way. We're getting there! Nearly finished, probably another 1/2 day of work and we'll be done. It's forecast again for 38 on Sat so that's not ideal, we are supposed to be doing the post uprights this weekend with our lovely new neighbours so I guess we'll just keep an eye on the weather. Plumber has been booked in for Monday 16th Feb, so once he has been the concreter can come in .... da da da da! The slab!!!
