Got a Wake-Up call this morning with an orange light flashing outside the window. It was Davie arriving in his tractor. The orange light sits on top of the cab. 8 am - it was just getting light and fairly livened up the street. Usually it is very quiet with just the school kids heading off about 8:30 am and the occasional car heading off to work.
Here he is hauling away his first load of topsoil away from the back garden. He takes it up to a farm nearby. Hopefully someone will make good use of it for their garden.
A pink sunrise and it turned out to be a lovely spring-like day. Iain and I marked out the curve for the edge of the sitootery - Glasgow word for place where you "sit oot [out]".
By the end of the day about 4 tons of earth had been removed. It's a narrow driveway up the side of the house and Davie did well to reverse his trailer up there each time it had to be loaded up. By 4 o'clock it was getting dark and cold - time to call it a day.
