The reason I have been rather absent...

It started with a hole...


 and a trench...


 and lots and lots


of rain.


 The hole got bigger


 and a new soak away was formed.


 New drainage pipes were laid at the back


 and the front.


Then the holes were filled in


 and the edgings all done


Then today the gravel arrived, 40 tonnes of it!!


 After an hour or so the entrance looked like this


 but the pile still looked like this!



My arm is now aching and I can't even do any therapeutic sewing as my sewing machine broke half way through making my Abbey Coat. Our drive is looking great though!
