Hello again! Here's some pics from April:
 |
| Rainy walk in the early rape fields |
 |
The new arrivals settling in!
We started with 8 hens - 6 two month olds and 2
ready to lay-ers. Sadly now have only 6.
(The high up coop evidently didn't keep out
ALL the baddies!)
|
 |
We used fleece this year on the early veg and it worked
a treat - although it doesn't look too pretty |
 |
| Free wood chips on the path ways |
 |
| Arches for climbing veggies |
 |
| Lots of dandelions for the bees! |
 |
Now the water pipe was buried we could continue
work on the patio in front of the barn. |
 |
The main reason for building this was to get
rid of stone and rubble from around the garden!
|
 |
Building the wall /
Starting to fill with stone
|
 |
Using pretty old bricks
for decorative edging
|
 |
| Stones, stones everywhere |
 |
| And it's full! |
 |
| Another rape walk in the sunshine |
 |
Starting a few other jobs around …
stone step onto the patio
digging out the fallen retaining wall
|
 |
| My mum and dad came to stay! |
 |
Obviously we roped them into helping!
Almost 6 hours of solid work later we have a patio!
|
 |
| To celebrate, we went to Veliko Tarnovo for a day/night |
 |
| Panoramic lift in the hotel! |
 |
| Arbanasi the next morning |
 |
| Back home, chilling on the new patio! |
 |
| We went for a 10 mile walk around the local villages |
Thanks!! Bye bye! :-)
