Drains all dug, A splash of drainage metal in the bottom,

Then its time to get out the handy dandy battery grinder

Day 2. 8.30am, after a hearty breakfast of nescafe, and a slight attitude adjustment, I'm back into it.

BTDT. We got a contractor in as our place is sandy, but needed deep drains.

Yea, I considered paying a contractor, best quote from 3 was $4k, with a 5 week wait.

It is a blocked/ worn out field drain from my septic tank system. I'm creating a new section of field drain to dispurse the fluid from the system. In town you just hook up to the sewer, in the country you need your own system. Soak holes do the same job but the water table is too high where i am, so field drain is the best option.

I have admired that cab in the first pic for many years now. Hasn't moved in a long long time

The old Butterbox Acco

dig dig dig. 7.30pm. bourbon now. End of day 1.

6.00pm friday, finished work. Time to dig

Ole mate Greg, from up the rd has a small digger he uses for his business. Its available for hire when he is not using it. He even delivered it too! Nice work.

The lads from Plumbing World give me an extremely sharp deal on some storm water pipe. Shot guys.

We need to get this sorted.

Day 1, 3pm friday, ole mate Mike, from Landscape Supplies, drops off 2.5 cube of drainage metal.

Comprehensive analysing confirmed my suspicions. It was poos water. My name is Mark, and I have a drainage problem.

So, was out in the paddock chewing cud with the bovines when I noticed a new water feature.
