Baking, Boarding, and Beyond
Don’t it always seem to go, that when you are actually doing things it’s hard to sit down and write about them… Jetting (or rather, turbo-propping) off again The week came with another stint across the water. This time it was much smoother with no delays, and on the way back I had enough time…

Isle Trotting
This be a holding post…be ye warned Waterford I popped across the Irish Sea to do some work in Waterford last weekend. The flight was delayed and we ended up being the airport stragglers, left stranded almost an hour after the rest of the occupants had vacated. It isn’t the most comfortable place to be…

Building Frames, Breaking Earth, and Barbecue
The last couple of weeks have been dominated by the delivery of our Growplay climbing frame. Building it was easy. Sorting the play area is another matter… My plan to have all the ground work done before building the frame didn’t quite happen. The frame components arrived last Friday, but the sleepers and stones were…

Garden Clearing and Good Food
The weather has been…interesting, as of late. Getting stuff done outside has been a challenge but thankfully the weekend brought sunshine. The latest project involves building a big play area which will replace most of the old patio. If you remember from last year, I lifted a lot of the slabs to build the base…
