We are off to the farm for one night and a day. We are going to see the cabins and the roof that has just been built, combining the 2 Wendy houses and giving us a shelter to hide from the rain. Unfortunately it will not protect us from the mist and rain coming in from the east. So I have a plan.
There is a huge heap of bottles waiting to be used to build a wall with a door and two windows. A cage of two fences filled with bottles and slurry and plastered. I have waited about four years to put this plan into action and I am looking forward to finally starting.
The kitchen lean-to is yet to be built, and we will use the same bottle and fence technique there as well. I will take measurements today and work out what will be needed to finish this construction camp - Camp Chestnut. It is a beautiful site surrounded by chestnut trees that bear an inordinate amount of fruit. Conkers! I remember conkers in England when I was little. Bashing someone else's chestnut on a string called a conker.
Chestnuts are also called Famine Food. Apparently they are filled with nutrition, so if the world's food supplies start dwindling, we will be picking up and bottling these little brown powerhouses!
Have a great weekend all. Love and light.
