I know, as another bottle of wine is opened;)

This may be hard to follow without pictures but I'll name the pictures for people viewing via email.

This was how little I got done yesterday
'Yesterday'

Chamber three removed
'3-out'

Dan 'next door' securing the head of what's been dubbed the loch ness monster:

'lnm'

New filter pit 1/2 dug:
'1-2'

The blocks ready to go in:

'blocks'


The ridiculous amounts of pipe work that needs sorting:
'pipework'

Hole is dug just need an edge trimmed down:

'the-end'


Here is the state of the pond water:
'state'


The plan for tomorrow is to drop the water level so I can take the two other chambers out and get the 3 meter 4'' pipe extension to the new filter pit in, the nexus is going on the deck. Once that's welded in with the ball valve on shut off the pond is fully isolated.

From there the concrete base will go in the new pit and the old one started to be filled in(there is going to be a patio on there).

From here it's all about how long it takes the concrete to go off, as the base will be pretty thin and temps are around 15 during the day, if I can get it down early enough it should go off by the following morning so I can get the blocks laid. Depending on time I will try to get most of the gluing done when the race is on. So it could all be in and done on Monday but more likely it will be Tuesday.

Many thanks to Dan 'next door' for the assist.

Emails will be going out in the next ten mins, if you the want to see the pics pm your email addresses if you haven't already.

Man brother, that ground looks awfully tuff to dig...Good job, looks great!
V tough, and the idiot who measured it forgot to include the pump, a hasty redesign and we're back on track, I hope It'll be done by Monday.
