Hof / Terrasse

This started in November 2014


First of all, getting the old stones out...




A bit of digging and the laying of the foundations...



 Need to get these buggers straight!


 Some black shit on the under construction

Posts for the roof

That'll do

Our little army with an officer

Still straight? Yes

Fitting the edging stones

Decking waiting to be laid - 2 x painted, bottom black & top as you see

Cutting the edging stones - what a mess

On the way


Hooray - we can seed now...
Not yet,
Shit - the earth needs sifting...

 THANK YOU GIRLS :-)




 


A bit of fitness won't hurt


That looks better




Only 20 wheelbarrows to go

The shady bench in the corner will have a green carpet


John takes the hard job on...

Seeding



On the 17th of May the first hazy green appears...




  
 Remember? - this was the hof when we bought the place:



 The colours are coming out and the greenhouse lost its walls

                                    

 and today with 36°C in the shade...
                                                                                                                                                          
                                           


The terrasse needs only a few finishing touches  - the last metre to the door and a roof
maybe next week...
