Back again to watch the final touches being put to the drive, and still full on action both for Mark ....


...and the local birds, still making the most of the freshly turned soil.

The two piles of dirt were easily lost on the slope, which now looks smoother than before.

And we also discovered a new use for the gorse remover - it proved very handy for extracting the mower from a tricky position.

Despite this little hiccup, we managed to mow a new section of the slope for the first time and use the cuttings to remulch all the trees. The trees are looking much better these days although one of the gums that was transplanted has since died and many of the gums have rather a lot of uninvited residents.
