On a beautiful morning in Cailho-le-Haut.........................when the rest of the valley were still in the mist...............We.....
had the delivery of ready mix concrete for the cave, it arrived via the piste vert, ( forest track) as the truck was not allowed to come up the usual route because of a weight limit on the bridge at the bottom.
Fortunately the driver is local to the area so knew the way, unfortunately no one told us that, and Dave and Rudy dutifully waiting in Premian to meet the truck, missed him and ended up chasing him up the rough track.....good job we have the 4x4 now!
He drove into the drive no problem, and the wheelbarrowing began, in haste as the drop off time was limited to 30mins, or we had to pay an extra 60€...........it was a bit like formula one for a time!
here is Alain getting a barrow load, even though he got there a bit late and some went on the floor!
