is that the polymeric one haggi? :(
LLL does not like polymerics anymore
looks well executed mind, lovin the flags

MSH looks like the engineer had a field day on that one,have done plenty of goalposts before but never with a groundbeam link as well
I love doing all that sort of awkward steel work,
are you drypacking over the steels?
cheers LLL :)

Ive had a fantastic week, bust a 55mm gas main that ran underneath the length an old wall and then rose up into the old dry stone walling? wtf? so when we pulled the wall over..oops.

The day later after looking at the maps the gas board let us study, we went through another 25mm gas main that was buried 75mm deep in the lawn - couldn't believe it.

The same day whilst excavating foundations we pulled through a tree root about 3/4 of an inch thick, turns out the tree had a preservation order on it.

Never broken anything major before, and all this in the space of a few days.

Lots of lessons learned this week.

PS, i knew the guys on the gas board = freemans repair :p
