Dressing for guests, juggling ducks

With the foundations ready

The Guest Room is now in place and time to get it dressed. Obviously the things that need sorting first are the ornaments



The electricity supply is tested

Just remains to try out the wood-burner

Good view of the hills – and the pig house

We continue with the tortuous, and basically failing, attempt to expand our flock of laying ducks.
Solo seems kind of grateful for his three muscovite companions

Although he wonders why they only drink from the water bowl when he knows it is for jumping on and jumping off

Outside we have five that side

and five this side

nerving ourselves to end the five a side and go for a merger.

It has been good to have Claire and her brood free roaming round the site

but as they roam wider with a gleam of intent in the eye

We enjoy our home grown lunch

The Japanese Honeysuckle is also edible but we haven’t tried yet

The bees seem busy

and we pleased to spot the Queen
