The end of the day

In what has been quite a miserable day, really, the work has gone on apace and the car park is looking pretty good.

It is interesting that when there was no bitumen it looked huge (certainly bigger than its predecessor) now that it is bitumised it looks smaller!
All things have a distorted relativity I suppose.

To make this car park work properly has required (which is not immediately obvious to the naked eye) metres of undergrounded pipe connected to stormwater, and a pumping system to get the water to the street so that our neighbours to the rear are not flooded.
Given the fact that there has been a little precipitation today, it does seem to be working!
