That’s some retaining wall, must have been a real fright thinking that hill was coming through the home

Marty T did a couple of videos about clearing up after the recent heavy rain in the Sounds. It shows how much work can be involved in living off the grid. ru-vid.com BTW I take it that you didn't ask any Aussie mates to help with the retaining wall? You would have known they'd say 'Mate, ya dreaming'. Link for people outside of NZ - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UT6oZqYij8U.html

😂 Na no Aussies were asked in the making of this video. I have seen his videos. Huge damage. I think we have all had our turn at some stage in the last 12 months
