Well, four days in – actually four half days – and this is how far I have got.  And I keep thinking the next time I come here, I will reach the top (the top is just underneath the white wooden clamps). So I reckon that I am about half way up. Mmmm. 

Day four – and about half height

To be fair, there have been a few distractions the last few days and today was no exception.  With the plan to put sheep on the bottom field, we had to put up a temporary fence around the septic tank.  The wooden railway sleepers that cover the top of the tank are looking pretty rotten.  I am not sure that they will support the weight of a sheep, but I have no intention of finding out!

Temporary fence around the septic tank

I suspect that we will need to erect an electric fence around some of the field.  Although the walls and fence are (for the most part) in reasonable shape, they are a bit low in places.  Still, we will see.
