After much cursing thumping posts in and taking them out again phase 2 of the fence is almost complete. I need two more metal spikes, which should arrive on Monday, for the remaining posts and theoretically it should then join up with Phase 1 (the tape measure indicates that there's a good chance it will). It may look as if the post nearest the shed is leaning at an alarming angle - I've used a wide angle lens which distorts things, take a look at the shed - that definitely doesnae lean in the real life. Ok there's a gap between the soil and the trellis - that's where the hedge is gonna go (probably Beech with the occasional Winter Honeysuckle). Best time to plant bare rooted hedge plants has always been November - phew, from Tuesday on I'll be able to take a rest a while then (in theory:-)!
