29th May 2022 - Clearing the Tunnel - Tick !

Thought for the day :"“I'm pretty bad at building fences. Oops, wrong place for this post.....”


Day 2 of clearing the Tunnel and looking for the elusive bucket with the replacement compost bags for the eco-toilet for the Tavern!! also looking for costumes for Susie - they all seem to have disappeared as well!

A mammoth task as there was just so much stuff still there and it was all fairly unstable. Yesterday was taking it all to pieces and leaving a scene of devastation - today's task was to make some sense of everything and put it back together.

And voila!

A much larger gap to get by the machinery and a lot more stable ..


Still a lot of stuff - but the vast majority of that is boxes of Wade which need sorting some time!
Also a large amount of catering equipment mainly from Nancy's wedding. 
Unpleasantly, some stored foam mattresses have proved a very nice home for rats and the smell was terrible.  a number of black bags have been filled but they are only collected once a month so they will have to be stored by the hard standing for the car.

Another sad result was that the Voll's Wagen had not fared particularly well and was also attacked by rats - though not to the same extent. after consideration, and the fact that I am not going to Germany this year and when I go next it will be different from the old Fest situation - so I shall be unlikely to need a mobile guitar case... so it was time to dismantle and make room - but the facia will be part tf the stage area - and when I screw to the wall will also act as a handy bottle opener!

The Voll's Wagen  The VW

Meanwhile Susie has been all over the gardening weeding and planting. She is saddened this evening as she has been working so hard and can hardly see what has been achieved...
One thing that was achieved was a Bowl Of Petunias ("Oh No ! Not Again!")
Keeping an eye out for a Large Sperm Whale!   
(ref: Douglas Adams - Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

Tomorrow I can concentrate on getting the roof onto the Ty Bach and then think about some strimming and clearing the lower quarter which is growing like Topsy!! Also need to think about some of the trip hazards - the major ones at least. 

So tomorrow will be a day at the Homestead.
Beer should be delivered tomorrow - they are allowing me 4 kegs with two set for sale or return if looked after properly. We have no idea how many (if any) will be in attendance.  Watch this space.

Ho Hum !!!

Cheers !
