13th drainage
Minus 9 degrees Celsius this morning, but the sun was shining so we continued with our drainage work. It did cause us a few issues with the equipment freezing up, but we soon over came this and we worked to get the area on the 13th finished. Just a little more filling in to do then we will move on to the 17th wet area.
