Landscaping On a Wet Thursday In Scotland

Hi hello from the Landscaping team at Everythingforthegarden yesterday we started a Mono Block Job in Fairlie in Ayrshire we started by bringing i a mini digger and removed about 8 inch of soil this was a race against time as in Scotland at this time it can rain for days our objective was to get the soil out and the hard core in in one day.
This we managed by the skin of our teeth as we had just finished wacking the hardcore before it tipped it down for hours.
We could not get started till 1pm today thursday as the ground was to wet however the men spent there time in the Morning Fertilising Lawns and cutting Shrubbery Back we then got going by spreading out the whin dust and screading it witch is the process of leveling so we can lay the Mono we do this by laying scaffold poles ontop of the hardcore then filling in between we then pull a board down the scaffolding polls this levels the whin dust we then wacked it again and you Guessed it it started to rain job stopped till tomorrow Friday when w ehope to start laying the block.
I hope to let you know how we got on tomorrow night.
By for Now
Charlie. and the Boys
