Well they weren&#8217;t quite. Boon had chopped down the ones we wanted gone but still had to chop out the roots. This he mostly finished today. He really went at it too, refusing to wear the gloves I got him and getting a handful of blisters for his trouble.</p>
<p>Hopefully we have some help tomorrow, from one of the villagers.</p>
<p>Our target is to have most of the grounds clear by next weekend at which point we will order in soil, gravel, etc and start getting the initial layout done.</p>
<p>For all todays photos please visit our <a href="http://s768.photobucket.com/albums/xx323/thestrattonabcfoundation/Stratton%20House/boon%20gets%20blisters/" target="_blank">photobucket album here.</a></p>

<p>We went straight down to the house after my teaching in the afternoon, getting many raised eyebrows and smiles as I transported the wheelbarrow on my motorcy.</p>
<p>Onsite I carried on moving the tiles whilst Boon went at the trees again.</p>
<p>Its so long since either of us have done work like this we&#8217;re getting blisters, but its all good.</p>
<p>We had bought a proper bow saw at lunch time and you can just see the difference it made.</p>
<p>Can&#8217;t help admitting to some jealousy at Boon having the job that 1 and a half hours work looks like he&#8217;d been at it all day.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thestrattonabcfoundation.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/boonsaw.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-263" title="boonsaw" src="http://www.thestrattonabcfoundation.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/boonsaw-300x225.jpg" alt="boonsaw" width="300" height="225" /></a> <a href="http://www.thestrattonabcfoundation.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/me-barrow2048.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-260 alignnone" title="me-barrow2048" src="http://www.thestrattonabcfoundation.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/me-barrow2048-300x225.jpg" alt="me-barrow2048" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>My tile pile however&#8230;..well you know piles of things, until you get past halfway it doesn&#8217;t show that you&#8217;ve done much.</p>
<p>It was much easier and quicker with the barrow and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll have cleared them all by end of day tomorrow.</p>
<p>It was a two snake day today, one of which I must have inadvertently picked up as it ended up in the wheelbarrow.</p>
<p>Both escaped alive, but I&#8217;m pretty sure they were harmless ground snakes.</p>
