    I'm telling you mate. I was stressed as shit before going to bed last night. I did some mediations then after I came across this video. Best night sleep I've had in ages 😂👌🏻. When watching your videos I feel like a 9 year old boy watching his dad in the garden. You haven't got millions of subscribers but I'm being very truthful with you. Your content is not only informational about the subject topic but they also help in many different ways. Thankyou mate I appreciate you.

    Top tip when you pull completely up be careful you don’t kick any small stones down
    Good job 👍👍

    I would have moved the drop post further from the gas pipe as now it has been installed if some one did decide to rip it out whether thieves or indeed a future owner who didn't know about the gas pipe, the post and concrete would likely rupture the gas pipe. I can see your logic of protecting it with metal sheet but I don't think that this was enough. Moving the post further away would have been preferable for me. Maybe cutting into the adjacent paving slab just to be further from it. Would have made for a more robust fixing as well having a paving slab concreted around the top.

      Hiya buddy. Thanks for your reply. Much appreciated. When I backfilled over the gas pipe I placed a plastic pipe above it wrapped in tape and marked it gas so easy to identify. No issues there. ATB, Des

    Bet that was an hair raising moment with the gas pipe!
    Good thinking with the steel plate.

      It's irrelevant mate. I haven't got one and I don't need one. What I have worked very well. ATB, Des

      @@21stcenturycaveman33 i see. Just saying, in general, maybe for others, as a tip, the rotating one seemed to work better for me. ATB,

    I've got one of these posts and I accidentally let it drop, it smashed the key, the only one I've got. The lock is open but I have no idea how to replace the lock barrel - any suggestions anyone?

    I hope your hedge is very heavy duty too 😉

      I understand where you're coming from but realistically I can't see anyone pulling out the hedge and there's always a car parked the other side anyway. Plus, the trailer is anchored to one of the posts and has a high security hitch lock. Fingers crossed - should be hunky dory! ATB, Des

    i would have stomped the ground before adding the gravel

    • @21stcenturycaveman33

      I did tamp it down before adding the gravel. That said, it probably wasn't necessary anyway as it was thick clay. ATB, Des
