Start of the Pool
12th June 2206. A red letter day. The official start of the pool. The digger arrived and for the next 4 days hammered and dug into the mountain to prepare the base. By Saturday the 17th, we had the footings for the walls in and a floor layed in the first barn. Mark came out for two weeks and his expertise has proved pretty essential because I hadn’t fully realised all the intricacies. Sas arrived on the 19th and Jus and her baby came the next day.
Ryan and his mate George have come out to help and the walls are going up.
It’s now the 9th and the walls are up to the top course. Next week P&Wen arrive and we should begin ‘topping off’ as we say in the building trade. Onwards and Upwards.
