I'm still helping my mate on land drainage repair. We found a 2" clay pipe with 4" collars today 6' down. Wandered why it curved in the trench. Came across a massive boulder

I get asked for them for the trials club I'm in but not a chance that sort of stuff is going in back of my wagon

 

[Giles]

Done a fair few electric connections for UKPowerNetworks now, but I'd be bollocks if I came across big boulders like that
