So we were having 18 tonne of blue metal delivered so we can fix up some boggy sections of the track and level off a nice area for the new shed.
Young mate meets us at the gate and we were worried with all the recent rain, of him getting bogged..............
He followed us in and when we got to a 20 metre boggy section just before the entry he stops, gets out and has a look.
Now worries he'll give it a go, patrol got through no trouble in 2wd and it isn't deep. So he turns around to jump back in the truck, but before he gets there it bellows large puffs of smoke and croaks.............
Won't kick over, wont budge...
So we now have a 30 tonne truck blocking the roadway.
Not too much of a problem except its blocking our neighbours access as well as ours and the shed was being delivered today
A 10.5 x 7 metre shed with 10.5 x 7 metre awning, so it wont be on a ute...........
Hopefully old mate can get his delivery truck around.
Still, I'm not complaining its moving ahead and shortly we'll have a shed with 2 x bathrooms and a wood heater inside.
Then its time to start building our Jayco "Docking Stations"!!!
Couple of solar panels for power, septic tank for the dunnies and rainwater tanks and we'll be all go.
Love to invite some swaggers down when the track is fixed and toilets are ready........
Just make sure you bring beer........
I also deny everything of course, but I managed to get the tractor bogged to the axles on the weekend.
Definitely no photos - so don't ask...........
It was handy having the front end loader though, I just lifted the wheels in the air and packed some tree stumps (chainsaw helped) under the wheels then drove out.
I wonder if a FEL can be attached to the front of the playdo or is Harold Screwloose would object
Hopefully more photos after we hand move 18 tonnes of blue metal next weekend..............
