Can’t say I’ll join in every week. But there will be quite a few weeks this year when I’ll be try something I’ve never done before
.
I can join in on week one. Today me and Bob moved an electrical pole from the hill out the back of our house to just behind the house ready for cutting into fencing strainers. Conveniently the electric board have recently replaced lots of electrical poles and they just level the old ones were they fall. And most the time there’s very little wrong with them, may need to cut the top or bottom 3 or 4 foot off. The rest of the pole is sound. So after a chat with the land owner. We now have free fencing materials
. Not that unusual of tasks you might say. The way we moved it was a little different
.
Walked up the hill with a big rope, tied it around the pole. Tied the other end of the rope to the back of Bobs pickup, that was in our field. I was the eye standing next to the gate, while Bob drove across our field. After the initial tension was put on the rope...... we walked back up the hill and tied the rope properly the second time
. It worked really well. Much easier than dragging it by hand over boulders and very tussocky boggy ground.
