Fabrice
is late, of course but once he gets here, he starts the slow job of
deconstructing the fence. Here’s the story
on the fence. There are 15 panels between 15 posts and 4 slabs per panel. Each
slab is 2000 mm long, 500 mm deep and 50 mm thick, weighing 120 kg per slab.
That makes the fence about 9.5 tonnes. Flashy’s original guess was “about 10
tonnes,” Just sayin’. It’s going to take about 4 runs to the tip, I reckon.
His excavator is about 2-3 tonnes and around 20 years old
but seems to do the job. I think he’s done this before!
A slow start, obviously sussing out the best plan of
attack, saw Fabrice start in the middle of the fence. Once he got the hang of
it, he really got stuck in. Apart from a 2 hour lunch break, when his missus
picked him up and they went home for the French lunch. 6.15 pm and he’s still
working, so you really can’t complain.
