Well last few times I've done it I haven't taken any photos and although I've tried to clean and save the water it still comes back dirty. So this time I went the whole hog and decided to get a hand pump (a bilge pump to be precise) and set some containers up so I can pump the water into the top one and then let it flow to the others below it, thereby as the water gets to the bottom container the water should be a lot cleaner.
So here is the container set up

Now that it's all set up time to pump the water out of the pond. These photos were taken as stills from the CCTV camera, but you'll get the idea

The pond now empty I now have to scrub the liner to get all the weed and silt out of it.

That's basically that, now just have to put stuff back around the pond

The fish have now been put back.
And that's is for another year.
