Wednesday. It's a bit hard to see in the picture but there are about 18 holes bored into the ground for pile footings. On the right-hand side edge of the picture is the auger-bit which attached to the end of a digger arm from the digger. Part of the digger itself can be seen in the bottom-left of the picture.
The mud was so sticky, I periodically had to scrape mud off the auger so that it could still bring up a decent amount of soil each time it drilled into the ground. Not to meniton doubling the weight of your boots by having stones encapsulated in mud stuck to the bottom of your boots.
We continued dwanging the floor and putting joists in. Dwanging is solid blocking.... Solid blocking is timber that goes in between the joists to keep them straight up and down and stop them moving side to side (bowing or buckling etc.)
