All I've got to do now is relocate a small portion of my front garden (the present shoreline) to my back garden. Buckets and a wheelbarrow I'm afraid.

I've completely put off shifting gravel for my parking space with the current hot weather. I put tarpaulins down to keep to sand underfoot from getting in the house, I'll dig out the corners and use that sand to make mortar for the slate retaining walls. So much to do, can't remember being this busy when I was still working for a living.

Tractor arrived yesterday and quite obviously chunkier than the model I'd had in mind but seeing as its more powerful still I kept quiet,
does mean I'm trailer shopping tomorrow now in the morning instead of loafing about

This is half-full still of (at least) 3 year old diesel,
Had an oil change all around but will get a further change once this fuel has gone.
Reluctant to drain the fuel as i've read Kubota are a pain the restart with any air in system
