Well here it is, the highest wattage grinder around armed with a diamond blade - incidentally, I have another of these up for sale if you happen to want one (look to the right) ----------> over there somewhere up near the top. It's all but new off the shelf.

When we had the old garage knocked down, we had to leave a section of brickwork sticking out, because it tied into the party wall and our neighbours came round to photograph and complain about me touching it, despite it being our brickwork and on our side of that wall. 

That wall will soon be repainted and trelis put up over it to hide it's disgusting appearance without the effort of rendering it or the waste of throwing out the trelis that was previously attached to the long wall in the garden. So the brickwork had to go, it was sticking out an entire bricks depth and would mean suspending the trelis that far from the wall, way too far. 

Five minutes of death defying angle grinding up a ladder later, and some bolster violence, 99% of it is gone. What remains are the stumps of the bricks that tie in through the party wall. They're so loose I may remove those by hand, cut them in half and mortar them back in to get the wall flush.

You can see the neighbours asbestoes garage roof, and remains of our own plastic version, are still stuck to the top of the wall. If I get ambitious, I will tidy that up as well. The wall is already flush enough that a standard trelis baton will suspend that trelis above most of the rubbish still sticking out, an extra half inch of baton depth would cover it all. So it's all a matter of effort versus effect now.

Once the wall is white and the trelis white or brown, it'll work as camouflage, 'specially  once it's covered in climbers.

Here you can see me modelling a standard up north tangerine tan.  

It's Sunday and I'm knackered, so the only other thing I'm thinking of doing is getting out the laser level and determining the levels I need to til the garden to - but that depends how many cans of beer I drink before then. Coordinatin is rarely improved by the creature.
