The pond is leaking
It is now the end of Ocober, and the pool is leaking. The water has been pumped out so that Martin can get down to trying to find the “hole”. Although to us it seems that the leak is in the side of the liner, around 15cm from the top, what appears to be a puncture is found in the base of the liner, under where the rocks were being placed. This is patched and the pool refilled.
The pump is turned on and everything seems just fine - at last.
In the meantime the weather has turned cooler,and the autumn colours are appearing in their full glory. The prediction that this year’s colours will be better then ever and a week or two later than usual appears to be correct!
