Pond - day 1

Got:

10 sq.m matting
5 bags sand
Big tub for fish

Pulled out all plants, incl. huge masses of root system
Caught fish - 4 big goldfish, 4 small not-goldfish, 1 teeny-tiny baby
Annoyed a number of frogs
Scooped out gravel, slate chips and lots of sludge
Emptied most of water onto gardem
Lifted surrounding slabs

Fish and a few plants safely in tub
No frogs stranded in empty pond

Tomorrow:
