What did you spend your third transfer on?
We used our last transfer to get two lorries of a special soil we use for plastering the walls of our house, wire mesh and a lorry of sand we bought this to help us finish up our house that we had started building using our second transfer, we later dug a well with part of the transfer and also added some of our own savings to this project this is because we had had so many water problems and where we could get water was far.
