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! :-)
