Did someone say turf?

So, before we start talking about the turf, lets talk fencing..

After 2 site visits, one for a quote and another to verify site conditions/levels etc, we  waited about 5-6 weeks for our scheduled start date which was Monday. Unfortunately they called the week before saying they had been delayed and they couldn't start until Wednesday. OK, fair enough..

Tuesday evening another call.. delayed. Cant start till Thursday.

Thursday they turn up - and leave. Need longer posts. Job doesn't start. Mind you, they didnt tell me this, the neighbour told me.

Friday, get a call. Cant start with longer posts until mid/end Sept.

OK, I have no patience.. so sacked 'em. Got my deposit back.. so we are now looking for a fencer again! Joy.

Ahhh Turf. Finally turf out the back. Not much to say here but post some pics! It is looking a bit brown at the moment due to the mud left on the leaves after being rolled in. I'll post some pics in another month or so.. am hoping it cleans up and is nice and green at the end of September, which being Spring should help it get a move on! ;)

Start of laying the sod

Begin rolling

Rolled
