\"concrete<\/a>… with the work today.<\/p>\n

While I was waiting for Terry I moved as much as I could of the stone pile that was in the way. There’s certainly enough stones in there now to build a decent wall now. And when Terry arrived, we moved the big ones with the digger.<\/p>\n

Once they were out of the way we smoothed off the surface and flattened it down, and then fitted the shuttering, because if you haven’t already guessed, Terry and I are going to be concreting the car park. I need a proper flat surface to work on.<\/p>\n

We went off to the quarry after lunch to arrange the concrete delivery, but it won’t be here until Thursday morning so we came back and fitted the reinforcing grillage<\/em>. That’s necessary with a 150mm thickness of concrete. Terry then went off nd I carried on ripping out the weeds from where the towing dolly is kept.<\/p>\n

I had to nip into Pionsat and the Intermarche<\/em> and I’ll tell you something – for a small-town supermarket in a small town like Pionsat, the place was packed. Three tills were open and there was queueing in all parts. A few people were doing a mega-shop there, a sure sign that the place is certainly having a great success and that it isn’t just people who might have forgotten something at the weekend<\/p>\n

I was on my travels last night too. I was in the police force and I’d stopped a Moroccan because of an offence that he had committed with his trailer and i’d discovered that the trailer’s controle technique<\/em> was out of date by a day. And so I’d gone and given everything else a full inspection and found loads of other faults too.<\/p>\n

A few hours later I found him in a telephone box filling in a huge lengthy form about this controle technique<\/em> issue. He’d been seeking legal advice and filling in this form was something that some solicitor had told him to do. He told me that he was quite confident that he would be let off a penalty and so I helped him fill in the form, all the while thinking to myself “just wait until he receives the summons in respect of everything else that I’d found”. <\/p>\n
