It's hot.I have just bought a Rotary Airer washing line, it has come with a long spike. The question is do I hammer the spike in to the lawn or do I dig a hole and concrete it in?
The washing poles in our garden were in with about a cubic foot of concrete each. Not fun when I had to remove them!I have just bought a Rotary Airer washing line, it has come with a long spike. The question is do I hammer the spike in to the lawn or do I dig a hole and concrete it in?
Only one.It's hot.
Hammer it in and have a beer.
Depends on your ground mate.
Hammer it in and see how it fairs.
If it doesn't hold. ...
Sound like lots of work, could you lift with crane dig around and under then bury the thing.Took three of us, with an engine crane, a full day to dug it out. Then spent two?three? hours breaking it up so we could lift it into the skip.
It was slap bang in the wrong place to do that.Sound like lots of work, could you lift with crane dig around and under then bury the thing.

Exmrsegg wanted a pond.
*Without* an island - cos I asked.
I would have tried "best you dig it dear" I would have had to forgo errr "home comforts" for a while, but that would be preferable to getting a shovel out!I would have tried “Raised ponds are all the rage dear”.
Can't fault her - she was one of the three of us that dug it out.I would have tried "best you dig it dear" I would have had to forgo errr "home comforts" for a while, but that would be preferable to getting a shovel out!
All I got from her indoors was,because of the position I have put it,was that when it is full of washing it will block the sun from her chair on the patio.
