        Thank you for putting things in such sobering perspective. Just you wait, though, there’s nothing quite like doing something with one’s bare hands; I am beginning to smell the stables. It will not be long now before I can add le mot de la fin!

          Given you will be left with a depression and a gap what are you going to fill the space with?

              Thank you for your solicitude; rest assured though - that so joyful is it to see the end in sight - that the depression will only be at ground level; but you are quite right, a considerable gap will need filling, and the answer to that lurks under the tarpaulin (all will be revealed):

                  Sorry, I couldn't resist. :) That same mini digger dug out the bamboo I had. I won't say how long it took.

                  You're right though, something challenging always gives pleasure when the job is done. I/we all await your bamboo's swansong and your last words of course. :biggrin:

                  I bow to your superior challenge; yours was a lot bigger than mine; hence my riposte being proportionate to the attack; in the shadow of your digger, my mere mattock pales into insignificance.
