That's totally awesome! :niceone:

Too bad we're in a rental property...

I love this bit to pieces:

The latter comment may also have had something to do with the "practice" holes we dug in another part of the garden, so as to get a hang of operating the digger

This link a bit further down the thread is also pretty cool: http://www.armourer.co.uk/maisybattery.htm

ooooooooo How come I dont get to have a bunker in my garden :cry:

Goodbye to the next few days because I'll be reading the 108 pages???? :2thumbsup



The neighbours stores etc arent covered over and even if they were not with boulders THAT big! Surely its blasted rock etc covering something that someone wanted hidden for a while.


I thought exactly the same. I'm also puzzled as to the depth of it compared to the ones nearby. If that concrete hip you can see in one of the last photos is at the apex of the roof, we're going to have to excavate down well below current ground level.

Has the OP updated with further excavation pics yet?

how hard is it to find the abandoned battery on waiheke?

FYI - it was 104 pages when Jim posted the link <_<

Currently on page 75 - but have been distracted here and there.
Oh - and they got cool videos. A Bob the Boulder memorial video too... :yes:

75 pages read, argh I need to get back to study.

Though, this has reminded me about the North Head tunnel thread.

There's a huge aerial photo of Devonport in my undergraduate comp lab from 1954, from memory. I'll check it out after my next exam. _b
