This morning, we tied our pulling ropes to the 6 support struts and mortared
the cement board down on top of the wooden T supports.

We are letting it set and cure before we screw the cement board down and
start filling in the whole area with the sandy soil, hardcore rubble and
everything else that is rubbish to compact it down solid and rebuild up the
level back up to the foundation point.
