Day 2

Started digging at 8am but by 9:30 even my Jeans were soaked through with sweat. Done about 3 rows and reckon theres about 20 in total. Had a shower and changed then we had a big thunderstorm. I'm using a technique called "double digging". Basically you dig up the turf then dig another 6" below this. You turn this over into the trench you previously opened up. (the 1st trench has its stuff on a plastic sheet)
One of the trees I thought was an apple tree is, in fact, a pear tree.
Called home on Skype (what a great idea Skype is!) then went to the pub for a few beers before chucking out time... 9:35pm. Also got the bus times from Kőrmend from the other English guy here.
