Finally started putting stuff back🥳. Had some headwinds - poor weather, hidden disasters underground which needed sorting and to cap it all my van blew up this week 😔. Still, going the right way now and next week should see some slabs down and anew vehicle 🤞

Progress report - weather has broken, lost time already to rain and found some nasties under the patio. Thankfully no bodies but no compaction of sub-base, no weepholes in retaining wall and totally sub standard roof water management 😭. Lots of extra work😞.

It's a sad day, my work companion for more than 20 yes has finally decided to retire 😭. Absolute favourite digging shovel, it's going to take several years work to break another one in. I'm hoping to repurpose this as a barrow mixing shovel though 🤞

My absolute favourite apple variety is Charles Ross and this tree is doing well this year 🎉. Already been eating them for a couple of weeks but this is the sweet spot for this variety right now. Another couple of weeks and the fruit loses it's super crisp texture but is still great to stew.

Thx @clfx.eth I have a potential job for a vineyard in the spring hence the trial. This system is a TLUD method. Top lit up draft. I incorporated a retort kiln in the top too to make use of the waste heat to make some lumpwood charcoal too (not pictured). I won't be using this method, not suitable for my needs but a fun tryout! On to the next one!

This is what every garage lover aspires to be doing IMO! This is like the biggest garage dream ever. Happen to be in Nantes France, take a look at the Iles des machines 🤝
