Today, again with marvellous weather, we finished filling in the trenches
that has the sewage pipelines in. The trench cutting across the driveway and
footpath was carefully layered with regular compacting with our now fully
working vibrator machine.

We used some of the left-over hardcore material on the last 8 inches and
finally topped with two to three inches of the recycled asphalt material.

The driveway and footpath now looks as good as new again!

The rest of the trenches were filled with the dugout sandy soil and
compacted in layers as before, the only exception to this process, is the
kitchen pipeline because it runs outside the footprint of the house and it
can settle down over the year by itself!!

All there is to show for this hidden vital groundwork, is the forest of 5
sticking up sewage pipes!!
