Following on from yesterday's efforts, today we went to get some mortar. And some other bits:
  • mortar (for building the wall at the front)
  • trowel (for applying mortar)
  • two 6'x3' fence panels (to fix the fence at the back)
  • fence panel clips
And then some plasticiser for the mortar on a second trip. All sourced from Wickes.

I should point out, none of this started until about 11.30am. Both of us were somewhat the worse for wear after having a few tins last night.

But the front wall is now finished and looks very nice. (I can say that as I had nothing to do with it!) I hope it doesn't rain and wash the mortar away. There's no coping stones on the top, yet.

Tomorrow - being the Early Spring Bank Holiday in the UK - I guess we'll get the fence done. I hope.
