Fence post #1

So finally a bit more progress to report on the back fence.  After fighting the ivy, for what seemed like 15 rounds, I think I've won by a technical KO.

On a roll, I started to dismantle the fence.  Given that I'm looking to use it as a template for a fairly direct replacement, I refrained from the 'sledgehammer approach'.  

This allows me to still have a fence that will be quick to come down once I get the timber for the new one.  The horizontal batten is just that - I'm thinking to have the top of the fence level - we'll see...
