A total contrast to yesterday, today is so miserable the dog wont even go outside!
I'm sat in the house peering out at my half-built woodstore that is sat on the lawn awaiting completion...

Sunny Saturday
Had a good day for projects yesterday. Got the tractor going and moved it over next to the shed, although its not going to be its long term home. not quite as invisible from the house as I'd first thought...

Wind Damage
Stormy winds the other night have damaged my little lean-to woodstore that sits against the house. Looks like the bracing has come clean off the uprights and the roof has lost a few planks of tongue-and-groove. I'm hoping I can fix it without taking all the logs out of it - perhaps i'll manage something with a few G-clamps and a car jack.
Apple Trees Ordered
We ordered a couple of apple trees from a nice organic nursery down in Ayreshire, seemed like a friendly chap and he was keen for us to choose breeds well suited to our area. We've ended up purchasing Laxtons Fortune and Red Windsor, both on M26 rootstock - whatever that means. Hopefully they'll arrive soon enough and we'll get them planted, and will be enjoying lovely juicy apples within - erm - a decade?
