Does anyone know anyone that could put three fence post spikes in for me - the ground is really hard and full of stone so to difficult a job for me

If there is a lot of obstruction under the surface, it can be very difficult to guarantee exactly where they will end up, if you are hoping the fit six foot panels in the gaps, for example.

its a pergola - three posts with wood across the top

Ah, that sounds more doable.

It would probably be easier to dig out for the post spikes and concrete them in so you can get them in exactly the right position. I'd be tempted to fit the pergola into them and prop it upright before the concrete sets.

I agree with Gramaisc & Rikki, if you try to drive them into the ground they will twist & turn all over the place & you will never get them lined up. It is best to dig out holes for them & cement them into place.
