Developer Disaster - The Aftermath

10 December 2011, after the fence dropped into the drain, work in progress in putting up temporary fencing so that the dogs could run free again!


It took four hands to do the work.

More and more soil broke off and sloped down into the drain.

Only the second day and soil erosion is underway.  From the look of the condition of the soil and cracks below the yellow pillar, this part of the fence is likely to fall down soon.


Luckily no rain from the time of the disastrous incident till now.

Evidence of soil erosion.


Knocking a post into the ground to support and hold the chain-link fencing together.

Laying the large plastic sheet to alleviate the problem of soil erosion in case it rained.

Holding the plastic sheet in place with bricks.

That's the spot where the hippo slipped and lost control and nearly sprained his back.

What is the boy doing in the photo?  Oh, he's playing with the brick.

Work in progress.
