| This is a view of the work so far. Working inside to save the back but I am sure you will get the idea. | |

| Peter - I may have missed it in an earlier post, but what are the "cobblestones"? - They look really good and seem like something I could use... | |

| Sort of what the final effect will be, I have run out of body filler so must find some more cheap stuff to finish off the yard. | |

| Great to have you back, weeds and all.... Actually I quite like the 'overgrown CFD look'.... | |

| Someone else grappling with weeds, it's actually heartening when I see others struggling too!
Love the bridge, Peter | |

| Hi Carl, The Bridge is 2.7m long 200mm wide overall and 500mm tall on the towers. The track bed is 2 bits of 75mm x 25mm angle held together with ally flat strip all pop riveted together with 3mm rivets. There is a slight gap between the 75 x 25 angle to allow for drainage. The piers are made from thermalite block cut to a taper. | |

| I am still waiting for Brico Marche to re stock with 10 x 2 mm aluminium strip, I was in the other day and they were restocking the rack but alas no 10 x2 or 15 x 2, one has to be patient in France. | |

| Yes its unbelievable the amount of growth that has occurred this year, combined with the rain preventing any work,- I don’t enjoy playing trains in the wet anymore. | |

| I feel your pain Peter, such a huge expanse of land to keep clear of weeds. I wish I had some indoor space to do the same, I would have probably done it years ago. Good luck with it. | |
