No.278 Of Taking Pride in your Piles

The builders in. They're so in. There's bricks and bags and dust everywhere. Two weeks' ago I spent a good hour pruning the lovely bush that adorns the back wall in readiness for its blooming sometime soon only to lose the wall and the same said bush when the builders arrived end of last week.

The piling has started this week. Piling is quite an art it seems and it's something that builders even specialise in. My piler handed me a business card with as many letters after his name as in it. He then talked me through the challenge ahead explaining exactly where they had to go, how deep and just why.

I'm very proud of the piles I woke up to this morning!. I must show them to the neighbours.....
