Todays happenings - the builders merchant's lorry arrived in the pouring rain to deliver plasterboard, sounds okay but it was the big lorry and that can't get down the drive - so mr shortlegs and joiner have to leg it up and down the drive carrying 2 sheets of plaster board (tinfoil side out), the lorry had brought 13 sheets when we only wanted 6. This is for the lining of the new remodelled harris tinsheds - more about them later. Hamish the westie delighted at the frenetic activity in the yard and driveway took advantage, as terriers are prone to doing, and chased a cat through the drainage ditch, does anyone remember that song - mud mud glorious mud ..... mmmmm
The palais de poulets has survived the weather - I am a bit surprised as it is in it's draft form - the screws haven't been tightened yet as it has to be dismantled and placed in the hen pen. The hens will have a pen as I have read they are partial to veggies and things in the garden, they will be let out in the main garden occasionally but to start with they will have their pen and a bit of lazybed to do whatever hens do. When I can fathom how to put pics on I will unveil le palais.
When we moved into this house great fuss was made by the vendor of the 'island' - we gave each other 'knowing looks' scratched our heads and thought it was a great pile of undergrowth and neglected willows, anyway after much hardwork, falling in the stream and midges an island has been unearthed nearly big enough to build on..... well a summerhouse anyway, but the problem was access so a big plan was hatched and a big bridge has been built from wood and metal. It arrived on a boat trailer and has been pushed and shoved into position, again in draft form, as it has to have the bridgey bit put on, it has rails and the base of the bridge but the planking came .. yes, on the too big lorry from the builders merchant. We thought that a party might be in order to open the bridge for visitors to the island so more plans afoot but as the new tinsheds are also nearly complete then perhaps it should be 'tinshed and bridge opening party' and as it is unlikely the house will be completed before christmas it is one too many party opportunities to miss !
