  9. the darker parts at the top is were the sandy soil has a higher cositency of soil and clay in it which is what makes it darker and also the side at the top where the grass has supposedly grown back fromm some body elses dig would that not be mounded up from the soil that had already been dug out if that is the case instead of it geing perfectly level to the rest of the ground plus at the top off the dig you can still see the grass and bramble roots that we had cut threw the little whispery ones which would of died out and floped down if it was a old dig. i cant understand why a genuine dog lad
  10. theres not much of o story to go with it it was all rather straight forward to be honest apart from the fact that there was a main electric cable running not far from the dig which kept throwing the loctor of course at certain intervals. we did get our quarry at the end of it yes it took about a hour to find a mark we were happy digging to cause of that cable and it took about three hour digging between two of us the digging wasnt bad with it being sandy it was just the fact that it was new years day morning and i was still a bit tender that made it hard work. never seem to fail on new yea
  11. what do you mean not a fresh dig im there digging it if you look at the picture you can still see the shouvle marys at every step in the wall which would of washed smooth with it beeing sand and if you look at the other sides to the hole ie the bottom right hand corner where i would of been througing the soil over my left shoulder you will see the dug out soil besides you need to keep at least one side clear to get in and out of them deep digs which of course you know and there was also another lad shouvling the loose away from the top of the hole to pevent it falling back in on our self what

  16. i use a light force stricker lamp with a 18ah 12v battery the battery is light enougth to carry in a rucksack on your back and many times it last me from dusk till dawn when fully charged the battery was made to power a golf buggy and apparently it will power one of them for approx 8-9 hours constantly but i find that a battery dose not last along while being used intermittadly as the nature of lamping as they do when they are left on constantly so if you decide to test the battery of your choice for live of charge leave the lamp on time how long till batterys charge has gone then knock an hou
