This was an exciting moment! Our excavator tipped into the pit while he was spreading our base course. Lucky not where our formwork was otherwise he would have crushed it. Anyway, he managed to crawl out of it without issue.

We've been based, of-course..
Today was an exciting day. We finally brought in 3x20 tons of base course. This it turns out is more then we needed. We put down a layer then compacted it and then put down another layer. As you see from the pictures we covered all our plywood with plastic sheets because our plywood wasn't very happy about all the rain it has been getting overnight. Of course the final work of grading with rakes was performed all the in the pouring rain. All in all it turned out good and we're heading back now to finish off the supports on the final wall which we didn't have to move out after all. More pictures will follow later today.
