just looking at this picture, your shed does it have a block back wall, and if so wont the weather get through that in time.

Yea i am going to render it soon with waterproofer, may even blackjack it.
My mate has 2 mini diggers and literally lives 200m away, he does on his days off.
I don't do most of the driving though, the guy in the first set pics of digger does, that what he does for living.
I spend my time emptying 100's of barrows into the skip.
Hard work.

Some nice plans there mate, drawn up by someone who knows their stuff!
Dont think i would have done any better myself,lol
Working with different levels and Terracing is always a challange, with drainage and building retaining walls etc.
Just be careful on the Turf spec, as similar can leave it very wide open to using cheap turf!
Rowlawn is about the best and i would not use alternatives unless from a named supplier.
Would have liked to have seen the Planting plans.
On the design front, i might have avoided above view looking like a Bog seat and cystern,lol
Cant wait to see more work in progess.

Gutted i lost the planting plans PDF, i have tried everywhere to get A2 scanned but no joy.
I may just seed it with Wilkos seed, it's getting the soil right, some people telling me lay it on sand.
The soil is clay around here.

the lawn mate,
dont need to wait that long before cutting it, just as soon as it needs cut, but set the rotary mower to only cut off the top 3rd of the leaf
should be looking at cutting it 3 weeks after its laid (roughly)
fire a decent pre-seeder fertilizer down before laying the turf
the B&Q pre seeder fertilizer would do
if you want decent drainage then lay on sandy soil structure
keep the clay as far away as possible mate
Cheers

Nice plans mate, did you draw them yourself? Self-taught using the software?
I've never come across 3design software before, bit of research says that it specialises in jewelery design, nice work.
Is that Phil on the digger?
