New project, will take a long time

Yup...pump as much water as you can out, Shore up the side and start at the bottom, go up as fast as the concrete will cure....

oh i'm so sorry but tommorrows another day, dont give up. This weather will pass sooner or later.

Thanks, tomorrow is here and it's full of water again but no more mini landslides which at least is something

That is now the new plan, after today I've got a couple of weeks off work so if I can get some good weather, I'll just take it one stage at a time

There ya go brother...you'll enjoy this pond soon enough...and it will be all worth it...

Hole 2 is dry, there is no reason why I can't work on the filters/hoover dam part of the project. I'm going to need at least 3 dry days before I could even consider sorting out the collapse......

I'm not giving up, this will happen, thanks for the continued support, stay tunned ....

Monster hole repairer anyone?

Keep it going. I HAVE to see this pond in action. After watching you do all this work, I am tired. It will all be worth it after it is finished.

I'm pullin' for ya Bro...
You're actually better off that you found out now...
It would be hell if the liner was already installed.

Don't give up, brother. It's just a setback that you can overcome.

With all the stuff you guys build this should be easy in comparison

If the liner was in it wouldn't happen as the water pressure would hold everything in place. It's dry tomorrow so I'm going to hire a mixer and try and get all the concreting done in one day, order the liner tonight and just go for it if I can later this week. Although rain is forecast for the week I'm going to try and construct some sort of tarp over the whole garden so I can work anyway

Don't give up, brother. It's just a setback that you can overcome.

Always the optimist Lou Not giving up just need a kick every now and again

Well, I'm not much for digging holes.

Fine, I'll dig it out myself then

Got about 70-80% of the collapsed sides out of the hole and added extra wooden support to the floating concrete after pumping the thing out again.... then it started raining, again
