Discovered how useful a pair of 9" tent pegs are for attaching string for section drawings. They're longer than a 6" nail (by about 3" by my reckoning...), so if the ground is soft and uneven, they're spot on. And considerably cheaper than them fancy shmancy survey pin thingies! Also managed to work out the relationship between three features all on my lonesome! OK, so it was blindingly obvious once you started furtling, but hey, small steps...
