Wow! Looks great Julie, well done to you :salute:

My OH is away for the day and so far I've rotated between making lotions & potions, catching up on ISH and drinking a beer in the garden( :shock: surely not at this time of day :shock: ).

So far I've achieved:piles of washing up and scattering bottles and books around the house and generally ignoring the very full washing bin.

I'll make sure not to show him this or he may trade me in ha ha :lol:

:lol: I had a mad dash yesterday to clear all the remaining rooms that I'd trashed whilst doing the kitchen!!

So far today, I've sold a man all the pea plants that I had in the greenhouse/potting bit, I've given the Westdoc Doctor man a guided tour of the gardens & he's held a few chicks & told me that he wants to order a few table ready birds (chickens & ducks) when they are ready. I've done some washing, watered the tunnels & kept the kitchen neat & tidy.... oh, I also did a poo hunt & cleaned the baby chicks out.

I was supposed to be making the hens a new nest box system... so I'm off to start that now :iconbiggrin: I'm hoping that they will use it as well, because they've changed sides & are going back in the woods to lay :angryfire:

But first... a quick coffee won't go amiss :wink:
The more people I meet, the more I like my garden :wink:

Bah... you're both lightweights!! :lol:

Nestbox house is done - looks bloody good too!! :iconbiggrin: If they like using it, I shall make another to go up in the hayshed & then they will have plenty of places to lay & won't feel the need to go in the woods... phew!!

And now, I think it's time for tea... and cornflakes is on the menu :iconbiggrin:
