I have decided that although we will not be starting building for several months, I am going to move my office on site, I have an ideal building there I can use with a great view. I have set the office up over the last couple of days and I am now just waiting for the broadband to be connected and it will be ready to use.

It will miss the lazy mornings seeing the kids off to school and being there when they get home but I have to get real.

In the meantime I have turned my attention to the garden and have decided that I really need to get the back field sorted, it is very overgrown with huge brambles, very uneven with lot’s of tree stumps dotted all over the place and there is still two huge piles of trees, all in all much to much work to do by hand.

As my little John Deere ride on tractor cannot cope with the garden lawn let alone the field I have decided to take the plunge and get a tractor.

I have looked at loads and I have decided on a second hand Kubota st30 compact tractor, this particular Kubota comes with a front loader and backhoe so whilst I am not even contemplating tackling the main house footings there is masses of other work for it including the footings for the front wall, trenches for the drains and cables, dig out the drive and soak away etc etc.

I am also being reminded by the kids that a few jumps for their motocross bikes will make the back field area even more interesting.

Good to see plenty of regular visitors but it would be great to have some contributions for some of you!

Until next time!!
