Today manual. Tomorrow electric.

Progress on the garage doors.

They don't look any different. But you can see the old doors leaning up at the side so they must be new.

One down, one to go.

That was the easy side. Tomorrow it's the more difficult electric up and over.

Just to set the record straight....

I haven't been working on the garage this weekend - it was a trick. I gatecrashed a family get-together and spent the day reminiscing about the good old days with them - listening to sixties music and looking at photo albums. Great fun.
But now I really am going to get on with the garage. Honest.

A good day to do garage doors.

Cold but dry. Time to remove the old doors ready for tomorrow.

Brrrr. Too cold. Back to bed.

Not really. Busy weekend. Garage doors. It is good that it is frosty - it will kill off things that should have died months ago. Like flies. And algae.

Busy, busy, busy.

Not really. Sorting out cupboards.





But the new doors for the garage arrive early on Monday so then I will really be busy!

Drying out.

The ground that is not me. Back to landscaping the slope.


The next big job is the garage doors. We patched them when we arrived and have stuck them back together several times since. So now new doors ordered - steel up and over for the garage (powered!!) and steel side hung for the workshop - and the old doors will be re-cycled into the goat shed. Say goodbye to the old ones.....


It's early doors for the late doors.

Now that's what I call geeky 2012

Three screens. Working on the www.cilycwm.com website. Going live shortly. Probably.

A walk.

This afternoon we walked up the hill behind us to see the view and feel the cold air in our lungs.

The sun shone today.

We recognised it from last year. It was so nice we went to Brecon so no work got done. What a life!

Sormy weather since my man and me etc etc

The wind both blow but mainly it rains. I might need to build and ark soon!

I will huff and I will puff

and I will blow your house down. Fortunately we are a stone house and we are still standing. But it sounded like a close thing!! Wow what a storm. Blowing a gale and when the bedroom is in the roof you certainly hear every puff. I can't wait to go out and see if there are any more trees down - not ours but locally several came down the other night.

Goldfinch and Siskin at the feeder

The siskins are coming regularly now - three at most. Lovely birds but very bossy!

More gardening.
