Building a solar House in France - plastering, stone wall, septic tank and sand filter - Building a solar House in France - plastering, stone wall, septic tank and sand filter

Comment:

Next Monday morning Francis carried on digging a drain for the overflow from the 4000 lire rain water collection cistern. Again he struck rock and had to use the Komatsu pneumatic drill. All this rock cutting is costing 85 Euros an hour ! But this time it was only about 40 minutes.

By Friday afternoon the site around the house looked like a battlefield.

The ventilation of the fosse as required by Mme Berthome.

The guest bedroom was plastered on Friday afternoon,

On Saturday morning Margaret came to inspect progress.

Laying the piping for the overflow and drain from the base of the retaining wall.

The septic tank and drain all covered with topsoil.

The battlefield restored with topsoil on Tueday. The sun returned and spring arrived.
