JC Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Well here we go then while you lot were busy at work I had time to relax so did a bit of messing around with some paint,(blue brown and grey ) some old wire mesh, a couple of bits of wood,some model water plastic, and some help from my imagination. This is a typical drainage dyke from the Fens full of grey murky cold old water,we need to build some banks on either side to keep it out of the fields and of course a bridge. Are those "Gabion baskets" you are trying to depict on the side of the bridge Brian?? Great idea if so, getting very popular these days.
