Happy new year

2022: the roaring 20s continue

Another huge gap in blog entries, and this time I’m not going to back-fill them. The past couple of years have been pretty brutal, and I’m not mad keen to re-visit them more than I already have, even in the form of light and breezy entries with pictures of animals and unfinished renovation items.

Well ok, I might. But not now.

Highlights (you may get cheery posts accompanying these):

  • Got a shipping container.
  • Installed a polytunnel and we grew a lot of crops.
  • Finished building the well pump house walls, a door, and most of the roof.
  • Got a well water filter installed – no more brown staining or e.coli (probably).
  • Got rid of the barn roof and all the junk the barn used to contain.
  • Got some chairs, a sofa, and a table.
  • Took custody of an old, manky-nosed, deaf, blind and cranky cat. He was ace.
  • Put up some outdoor lights.

Some of the not-highlights:

  • Didn’t get to feed the cows this year.
  • Mostly trapped in Ireland.
  • Had to have the cat fecked over into the meadow at the rainbow bridge, where he’s probably up to no good.
  • Got electrocuted by some outdoor lights.
