2nd June 2021 - Weary ....

Thought for the day :"I could never work in the Jobcentre. Imagine if you got fired! You'd still have to show up the next day.."


Day at Ffynnon Wen today.
Started with mending the perch for Fabio, I have been meaning to do it for a couple of weeks now and keep forgetting. While I was there with the screwdriver decided to finish the peacock house - there were sections that had never been completed - a few overlap panels and a wall section. Not important but it will make it a little cosier for them in the winter. 

Popped up to Beulah to get some more compost for Susie - she says that she will not need much more - we shall see! Nipped on to see if they had managed to repair my Timber Pro - nothing so far - they have got it going but it is not working properly apparently so they have asked for a few more days ...

Cut the grass with the go kart - just before it started raining  - so that was good timing.
Then back to pallet breaking and picket fences. Susie saw on one of the sites that one company was charging £1.29 pre upright for a picket fence !!  If so I have saved some money !!
Checked myself and found the 2ft Pales ( yes that is what they are called)  start at £2.30 if you buy in bulk!!


Must have over a hundred of them now - so that is a nice little saving not to mention the 2 x 1 inch wood that I did not need in the end...

But a trip to Newcastle Emlyn for some hinges, and screws and more nails - cheaper bought in bulk and loose,  but really for Susie to get some sweet corn to replace the ones munched by rabbits (we think), and another Hosta which has also been nibbled. 

And a full day's work and voila!!







So Susie weeded her strawberry beds and the fruit trees, and did general clearing, and transplanted some of the trees in the driveway.

One way or another we are both a little pooped this evening. Power Shower is a Blessing!

Experiment with gluten free baps and home made beef burgers and tomato sauce  - yum !!!

Cheers !
