Malcolm and Helen

Often unaided, always with very little encouragement, and always with maximum enthusiasm, Malcolm and Helen's visit was characteristically characterised by a fairly uncoordinated but characterful and highly effective attack on three jobs that we needed doing. Firstly was this, secondly a guinea pig run for Salt and Ginger (and the wee girl obviously - but you'll be pleased to note that despite the bed clothes she hasn't taken to sleeping out there - yet), and thirdly a frame for a chicken house.

I decided that we needed to buy new blocks for the lean-to, as many of the blocks from the Nissen hut are a bit crumbly - I'll use those for paths and stuff in the veg patch next Spring.

The challenge now is to have made some further progress on 1 and 3 before Malcolm and Helen visit again... which hopefully will be sooner than you think.
