So anyway today with the weather a lot nicer management decided we were starting on the garden.
She has ambitious plans which of course require removal of the turf having first made a kind of compost heap to dump it all in.
Even management is getting the idea now. We made 4 posts (joist saw from the hearth kit) then knocked them into the floor (sledge hammer from tool locker).
Then we marked out her first plot and started cutting the turf (spade from the tool locker) and then lifted it (pick axe with "afs" on the helve...).
The only thing we didn't take off the fire engine was a wheel barrow (at a push we could have used the debris sheet but didn't)
But anyway I was too busy looking at the house water supply to find a point where I could put in a t joint and a short length of spare first aid hose so we could put in an instantaneous coupling and run a sectional watering system across her plot using spare lengths of first aid hose.
Though personally I think that this is a waste of the house water when I could simply drive down and fill up off the mains.
Green Goddess fire engine, what a useful piece of kit, every gardener should have one....

Thank goodness for men and their simple minds.
Look helpless and say " Oh if only i had the right tool to do the job!" ....and he's off like a eager puppy to his green goddess to show how useful it is.
SUCKER!
