No I wasn't; I'm lying.

But I do want an 'ole dug, for a washing line pole. A big, heavy, iron
scaffold pole that wants going into the earth about two feet. What's the
best way to dig a scaffold pole 'ole? I did read about someone using water
from a hose pipe to dig a pole into the ground but it was lacking detail.

Any suggestions? What about a scaffold pole-sized drill bit? Is that
feasible?

3ft piece of scaffold pole,get the grinder on the end ie sharpen it up good
style like.

Wack the pole inta ground with a good ole lump hammer,wack it in a 1ft and
pull it out,clear the earth out of the pole and in the hole if its left some
behind,wack the pole into the ground another foot then pull out as before.
Get big pole and stand on a tall ladder and give it a few wacks into the
ground then get some wood about a foot and wack about three of em around the
side of the pole into the ground so none are sticking out of ground.

Done. ;-)
