The Digging is done and we've struck water

Digging for the sceptic tank and water tank is finished.

The water tank is built into the banking on the far side of the house. Because of the steepness of the slope we had to terrace it anyway, so we are making use of the lower terrace to form the water tank.



The sceptic tank is closer to the road and has to got much deeper. A special digger had to be brought in to get through the hard ground and, when it reached the right depth, it was filled with water. This could cause a bit of a problem so they are leaving it to see if it drains away before they start building the tank.
