France in Focus

In the summer of 2019 I renewed out terrace, also building an extension. A lot of pavés and sand. Everybody happy, almost there and it needed only a little finishing touch, backfill the sides with cement mortar. Easy as pie, next week... No, three years later, this afternoon. Better late than never.

Well done, job done. What is the next project?

Looks like another terrace ruined by the bac degraisseur lid.

@Austin France, yes, a workaround. I would have preferred to demolish this bac à graisse with my Hilti, too much work and money to install a modern fosse septique toutes eaux.

I noticed it 'cos I have the same thing as our FTE is more than 10m from the house.
Rules is rules y'know.

The cows in the meadows around us, sometimes ten or more, drinking each about 60 liters a day, fall outside the scope of the fosse regs. It makes me wonder.
