We are embarking on a self build project to build our own house in the Highlands of Scotland. This will be a record of our progress (or otherwise) as we wend our way through all the process of planning, warrants, builders and suppliers.

Drains & bedrock
Iain has been digging the trench for the drains and the large hole for the septic tank. Things were going quite well until he hit bedrock, so a trip to Inverness to hire a jack hammer. He broke through it but then hit another seam further down and the digger broke (seems to be when it is needed it gives up). All is okay for now the trench and soakaway are dug, the large hole is getting there although bedrock has been reached in there too.
