Bed 3 Continued, Hydrating More Coir

I had a break, a little sit down and a coffee, then mixed up another batch of topping up mix and added it the Bed 3 to make the soil level with the raised bed timbers, all around the bed. 

There is no hose pipe ban and I can't stand in the sunlight so I used an end that restricts the flow so that I can saturate Bed 3 so that it can now be planted into for Winter cropping Vegetables.

As can be seen the level in Bed 1 has dropped dramatically, and again I'm assuming that's the grass and shredded paper that I used to build the beds up with, So I need to hydrate more Coir.
