Gym again.

At least we following our own advice !

As our house is an old farmhouse, it has many pleasant and one or two unpleasant surprises. Under the outbuilding used as a garage, there is a hollow space the size of a small swimmingpool, that used to keep all the slosh ( hopefully just urine ) from the animals. When it got full they would pump it out and dispose of it. Last year we had it emptied and it really was not the most pleasant aroma.

While we were building we drilled holes into the concrete to fill it up with a lot of the building rubble. Yesterday we finally closed off the five holes for good. It seemed such an easy task. Yet it took the three of us ( my mum helped us ) four hours. It was not worth getting a concrete mixing machine so we did everything with a wheelbarrow. Actually Bob did the major part of it.

As you can see from the pictures we followed some of our own " exercise " adice. I have renewed respect for all building workers. It is a constant physical onslaugth, and unlike us they do it all day long, day in and day out.
One added bonus in this physical activity is that we slept amazingly well...
