Granite Walls

For the past few days I've been shifting lumps of granite.  It's rather heavy.  1.6 kg per Litre (compared with water which is 1:1)  Each piece weighs about 25-30 kg (and keeps me fit)
The granite has been lying about in the yard cluttering up the place, so I've collected it all up into one corner to build a retaining wall.  Geotextile keeps the weeds out of the cracks, and a drainage channel filled with gravel runs along the front - here it is, "work in progress":
 
And here is one I made earlier...
