pam, drains and a bat!

evening,

here is an update.....

we had a splendid visit from pam (sorry about the dice-curling results!) and i think a good time was had by all.

we got some work done in the barn, some gardening/weeding achieved, many blackberries collected and most importantly the new chocolate pudding i made was a resounding success!

since pam left we've started work on the rain-catchment system that we've designed (before then fitting the guttering).

here's a couple of photos of the work in progress.



something very exciting is nikki's first dry stone wall which is looking much longer and even better now than it does on the photo below when it'd just started:



finally, monkey boy (whilst up the ladders checking measurements for the guttering) saw this young bat on the wall in broad daylight:





pretty cool huh?

ok, next time one of us will be writing about the two new feline additions to the simple-team - don't forget to tune in then.....

gairy.
