Aggregate Industries 59 002 'Alan J Day' rumbles through West Ealing. Having seen Orange and Black 59 202 earlier on coming in the opposite direction I was hoping that it might have turned around at Acton Yard and come back on this working as it had worked it the day before!

GBRf's 66711 'Sence', complete with Aggregate Industries blue, green & silver livery, heads onto the Hope Valley line proper as it nears the end of its journey on 6H33, Small Heath cement works to Dowlow quarry.
A glorious evening again, and nice to get out to see 711 for the first time. I had hoped to get the Freightliner jumbo heading the other way into the sunset, but a late running EMR service to Lime Street set that back by 20 minutes, and the light went. One for next week, perhaps.

aggregate beginning to be spread and tampered. one bag doesn't go very far so from thinking i'd bought too much aggregate i'm wondering if i've bought enough! by the end of the day i'll know ...
sand will be spread and tampered on top of the aggregate
in the black sacks at the end of the garden are broken roofing tiles, which had been used to edge the plan of the garden at an earlier stage flic.kr/p/2mv7MWE i'm going to break them up more then lay and tamper them at the top end of the garden path before the aggregate goes down on top as the trench is deeper than required
the broken bench moved to the back of the garden for the cats
the dwarf fushia in the centre bed is still in its pot and only placed. it may/may not be its eventual position. i had it in a hanging basket ...
ps spot tiddy one of the garden cats
