Barn Girl: There's a Digger in my Sitting Room!

and lo....it was true! Inspector Walt and BarnGirl wandered up to the South elevation of the barn, to find a digger in da house!

Digger Ryan was back and digging up my sitting room, dining room and kitchen. In case you're wondering why only half the floor has been gobbled up and removed, this is step one of two, which includes preparation and creation of the retaining wall, as per the deets drafted in an earlier post, when us Barn Folk realised the whole wall had to come down.

Step One - A layer of crushed concrete, followed by a couple of mils of concrete leveled by hand with a trowel, followed by our friend, Bituthene 8000 tanking, followed by steel mesh, and more concrete to fill the space to a required level and continue up the wall....the retaining wall. More of this as it progresses.

Step Two - Scaffolding posts will be moved further out, Digger Ryan will return to dig up the remaining side of the floor and most of the steps above will be repeated.
