Goodbye Bob!

The guys arrive at 8.00am on Sunday morning. I'm hoping we won't wake the neighbours.


A big tractor for pulling a big rock?


Many of you will be wondering over the plight of our rotund friend, the Boulder. I'm afraid the news is not good. After much umming and arhhing, we decided that the "Ball of Doom" would be broken up and removed. If anyone is interested I have the bits, some still relatively huge, others very very tiny .There was a brief moment once the "mini-hammer" had been attached to the digger arm, and we found that the air pressure was not working, that we almost thought we heard a sigh of relief from the big old rock, but once the valves were opened, there was no turning back. Like a dentist attacking plaque, diggerman turned up the music, aimed, and got to work....





I actually took a video of the "primary cut", so you can see the wrath of the mini-hammer in action, http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=afY0vMU9qtU .

The tractor earns its keep...

  1. Wow like a knife through butter, guess the formidable beast of a rock was not that fromidable after all. Shame it had to go though.
