First Fence

Bought our fence materials today from a farm supplier near Burton Dassett.  They had a great store, full of farmers hardware like gate hinges and animal pens, plus loads of timber and tools.  They were also really helpful and cheaper than the internet.  It's so much better to be able to talk to someone when buying stuff you're not familiar with.

We filled our trailer with fence posts, put a roll of pig netting and a reel of barbed wire in the car boot (plus some new leather gloves for the boss) and set off to Chacombe.  A few hours later, and with the help of the hired post rammer, we had two rows of posts that were upright and in line.

Then it started getting dark.  I'll have to fix the pig netting on next week, then Misan can attach the barbed wire!
