Hello again! Just a little update. We are still waiting for the kitchen ceiling to be plastered. We know the plasterer is coming back because he’s left all his stuff here, including his trailer. So it’s just a matter of waiting until he come back from his holiday. Then he’ll hopefully come fairly quickly. That’s one of the things about Ireland. Things don’t always happen at your pace, they happen at other people’s! But he has done a brilliant job on the other rooms and J really likes him, so we’ll let him off.
The front garden’s still doing well despite the pouring rain and the wind. Between these bouts it’s quite nice, it’s just getting out there between downpours that can be tricky, but being on the field in the wind is gorgeous. Chris is actually on there strimming as I write – it’s too wet to take the tractor on at the mo.
Finally! We’ve ordered a poly tunnel! It’s a stronger one than normal, so it should hopefully last quite a bit longer. We’re waiting for it to arrive and then the site will need levelling and the footings sorted. We know someone who’s going to come and do this with a little digger. So that’s exciting and will give us far more room once it’s up to get plants (veg and flowers) going a lot earlier than we did this year) and also in larger quantities.
So that’s it for now. Happy Sunday! May God bless each and every one of you to know the fullness of His love and His provision.
