We managed to hire a breaker this morning to break through the floor and wall of the barn and link up with the trench. The bricks were really hard and even with the breaker it was a struggle to get through. Quite reassuring to know that one building is structually strong.

Progress on the trench went well today and we have managed to cover the water pipe with sand, add the electric cable and fill the trench in.

Next job is to build brick pillars, add railway sleepers onto them ready for the water tanks. We will be having two tanks, one for the farm and one for the house. Finally new pumps will be fitted and we should have our water supply.
