Little bit of roast beef today
-
Leg of mince tonight
-
No, I’ll just run the sthil saw along the edge when it’s gone off and let the grass go up to it, it’s just a free job this, at a mate’s bungalow he’s doing up to sell, we had enough left from a job so we thought we’d chuck it down here just to tidy it up
-
Nice, easy one
-
Little resin path this morning
-
Felt like a toad in the hole night, so that’s what we had
-
Gate made and fitted, 50 meters of wire fence up and half a dozen cherry blossom trees in, that’s me done here until the new year
-
Think this place could be my retirement job, just loads of little jobs, nobody bothering me, just left to get on with it
-
Chicken stroganoff tonight and it was bloody lovely
-
Just me and Mrs Stav this year, I’ve had a house full for the past 7 years, not sure how I feel about not having anyone this year, because she’s going to want to talk to me, if I’m the only other person in the house
-
Miserable day to be feeding the flying chickens, the state of it up here I could do with swapping them for ducks
-
Pork choppy things tonight
-
I wouldn’t of put these in if they’d be sitting in wet soil but with it being built up and the soil is from next to the river Tees so it’s really good quality and free draining, they should be fine
-
No fish in it yet, I’m trying to convince them not to put koi in it, it would be perfect for trout, it goes from 6” at one end to almost 7’ deep at the other and it’s got a constant fresh water inlet, it would be criminal not to put trout in it
-
That will do for today, she’s ordered 5 per meter so I’ve got a few left because that’s too many with the laurel, she’s also asked if we’ll plant the pond up that we did for them, of course we will, so I’ll now be on YouTube because I’ve made a few ponds but never planted one
-
Best time of year to do it, they are being planted on built up ground as well so their feet won’t be too wet over winter, a couple of years ago they got a grant to make a small woodland, they wanted us to do it but had to have someone like natural England to do it, they did it in late spring, 90% are dead, where as the hedge I planted for them in the November is now 3’ high and ready to be cut back I did this one 3 years ago same time of year and never had to replace any
-
Yep
-
Been well stitched up today, was asked could I spare a day to plant a few things, turns out it’s 500 cherry laurel and a dozen trees, don’t think I’ll get it all done in a day
-
Big old chicken dinner today, think I’m going to struggle to keep my eyes open for the snooker this afternoon
-
My twin brother does that, he works his way around the plate keeping his favourite thing on the plate until last
-
I have a family member that can’t have any food touching on a plate, so her fella genuinely uses one of these at home, a couple of years ago we went to a restaurant with them and she picked what she wanted to eat by working out how she could move everything around the plate so it wouldn’t touch needless to say we don’t go out with them much these days
-
For me, sea bass with a ratatouille for Mrs Stav, sea bass with creamed new spuds and leeks
-
Nobheads, they will of paid 35 quid each to get in there, so they are funding what they are against
-
I can’t be doing with my veg floating around the plate, Mrs went back in the kitchen to get more for hers
-
Mrs Stavs mates with us tonight so I did them a little chicken dinner
