An end in sight?

We really are beginning to feel that this is becoming our home as the work load starts to reduce from an enormous burden to a manageable choice of enjoyable tasks.

As recently posted on Facebook we have spent an hour relaxing on our new patio (so many thanks to Derek) during an unexpected hot spell just listening to silence and watching the moon rise.

Whilst there is a considerable amount of making good and decorating the installation of the fancy glazing to the kitchen doors completes the internal works.

 And now the fun begins. A spending spree at the local nursery has resulted in the first tranche of shrub planting. In addition mowing of the weeds in the raked off area makes it look like we have a bit of a garden and shows the promise of the future.


Unfortunately, due to the unprecedented cold weather, until now, it seems unlikely that our "Ruby Wedding" rose will make it to flower by the due date.





This is compensated by the lovely Hydrangeas presented to us by Christine and Derek.
