    New Pond in the making

    As My Pond ended up with a hole in it last year with our tree cutters not doing there job properly and it flooding the garden trying to keep it topped up.
    I decided to rip the old one out and start again, but this time make it bigger as you do.
    Had to go out and buy a temp swimming pool for the fish to go into as the new pond was being done, this as taken me 3 months upto now to sort with digging out by hand as had no way of getting a mini digger in the garden and making it's 4.5ft deep and added a new drain sump in the middle with new lights to the front and back plus in the water .
    Here are a couple of pictures

    will try tonight when I get home.

    Found out last night that my pond heater does not work and £440 to replace it ....so it is now in bits at work trying to see if I can fix it
