If you thought it was a big hole last time - it's a lot bigger now! They've taken it down another metre and excavated the basement. The result is that most of the section will actually be flat (so much for all my plans for gardening on a slope). The topsoil has all been set a side so that it can be redistributed once all the digging is done. They still have a bit of tidying up of the downhill slope to do, then they should be ready to start the retaining wall this week. I hope this isn't too boring - wait until it is nearly finished and you might be able to watch the paint dry!
