Clearing the garden obstacles for lighting and water points

[iteles]

In order to complete #61 and #86 we will need to dig a trench around the outer wall of the garden to pass the water pipes and electricity cables through.

Tasks

• Speak to plumbers to understand requirements for this
• Speak to electricians to understand requirements for this
  + [ ] Speak to some gardeners to understand how we can do this safely for the kiwi plant and any other plants around the outside which will have roots extending to the walls (my grandmother's roses for example)
• Understand whether this hole should be made manually or by a machine
• Dig hole (further breakdown of this to be added)

Adding priority-1 to this because the conversations have to be had asap to get this moving because digging the hole for this will be a job AND it gives us a good reason to check the insulation on the machine room for the pool.

@nelsonic When we're on-site tomorrow, I'd like to make a list of what needs to be done here.
Do we have gardening equipment in Geres that we should take with us?
(shovel, garden shears, etc)

[nelsonic]

@iteles we have a shovel (the one I bought and used to dig the holes for planting the trees in Gerês):

It's in the garage, we can take it with us into town. 👍

[nelsonic]

@iteles the shovel is on the veranda (Gerês) do you still need me to do anything for this issue?

[iteles]

This will be cleared by Pedro and Carlos from tomorrow onwards (and Sr. Pinheiro from the pool should also clear his junk)

Pulling down the priority on this because of the weather, the agreement that the external lighting #61 will be part of the second phase of electrical work and because there is an overlap with the conversations we're having around the water well this week #79 (comment)

The kiwi plants were taken up by the machines that dug the holes for #14 so they will have to be replanted elsewhere.
