27th May 2022 - Lean to's and Dragons

Thought for the day :"What do you call a dentist who doesn't like tea? Denis!!"

A sunny day - which was great as it meant that we could get on with some of the tasks still left to complete for next week ...

Susie donned her waders and cleared the springs and did a lot of weeding, while I took the pile of pallet wood and started on the lean-to and ty bach..

Aim is to get the Ty Bach operational and roof the lean-to - though the completion of the kitchenette is not necessary before the opening on Thursday.

And here we start ..

and so we have some roofing and the Ty Bach has walls 

getting there

Windows set in the end of the Lean-to

In other news - Viserion arrived..

It wasn't meant t be Viserion.. I responded to an advance order from Olive and Sage for a red Dragon that I rather liked the look of for about £40 - perhaps 2 ft tall - seemed reasonable value and looked good. After two months I chased and found out that they had sold out - even though I was an advance customer - paying two months and waiting - so they suggested that they could provide one of their other dragons instead - these at £78 but as an apology - so I chose Viserion. Once more a few weeks went by and so I chased again and they said that they apologised but the original dragon was now in stock. Sadly they did not send so another chase and I said I would take the more expensive Viserion and in fairness they said yes and it was posted the next day..  So a catalogue of delays - followed by a speedy resolution - after a while - but he is really nice !!

Searching for a good spot for him 

And now he has his log - and can be clearly seen form the Patio

and a closer look 

In other news - Susie decided that the door for the Ty Bach had to be tongue and groove - so it was a trip to Chadzy's for planking and some hinges - her project tomorrow - I shall be getting on with the roof and walls ...  and some windows.

 

Tomorrow is another day ..

Cheers !
