The weather was absolutely sweltering hot today in the garden.  In fact it must have been well over 30 degress C and working was particularly difficult.  Ticked off the list of things to do today was doing the electrics in the aviary, re-constructing the aviary and finishing off what my wife and I are now calling ‘Pets Corner’.

We have a south facing garden which is brilliant as it gets to sun all day long, but today it was relentless as the sun was high and very hot.  We started the day finishing off from yesterday with a quick trip to B&Q in order to buy an outside light and some wire.  We then finished connecting the electrics in the aviary as well as at the top of the garden on the new patio.  Hooray it all worked wonders.  So now the birds have a light in the aviary and one outside in the fly bit.

After cleaning all the aviary we then reconstructed it on the newly laid concrete slab that should make sweeping the floor much easier.  It went back together surprisingly easy and once the gate was changed to fit the new position of the aviary pets corner was finished.  Just a latch for the gate and some wood to go on top of the fence to prevent the rabbits from escaping.

Then at the end of the day, after a little pitch and put with the lob wedge from the golf bag (and 15 attempts to chip into the rabbit run without succeeding) we started to dig the footings (trenches) for the new shed to sit on when that arrives shortly.

After that it is a big tip run tomorrow to clear out all the rubbish and then on with the garage clean out ready for a conversion in the near future.
