6th May

We went up to the allotment to measure the pond, then went off to the garden centre to buy butyl lining. I got the underlay half price which I was pleased about and the butyl was reduced in price too.
We got it back to the allotment and soaked the hole in the ground and John had fun getting it smooth for me.   We got the lining in and started filling it with water.  We got it half full and had to go home cos I had to go to the dentist.  :o(  Didnt have anything done in the end :o)
I potted up some bits of plants to go in the pond  and we took them down after bee keeping.  There was a thunder storm so we couldnt do anything much, we'll go back tomorrow evening.

                                            after, half full and to be finished.
