This patio, underneath my window, has gone now; turned into a pile of rubble. And as you can see, you go ten days with no sign of a digger on site, and then two come along in close succession.

This new JCB model has been put to use shifting cement mix and, in the picture below, shovelling soil into a lorry to be removed. It's been thumping the ground a fair bit as well. Oh, as I've hinted before, I don't like that.

And then it drove away again at the end of the day.
