HS. Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Drainage up at the old mans farm, filled sandbags and placed them neatly around the grain store, away to tackle a small land slide about 4 meters by 2 meters which is preventing water running away from the farm, home, dinner, then heading up to perth tommorow with the squadies to start a new job which can only be done during the school holidays, fun fun fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Twas the very same Alex. Not a bad stopover to be honest. Today, busy as. Yesterday the new furniture arrive but all we had to build was the wardrobe which was part assembled. Today we went for a two mile stroll across the windswept top of Bratton hill. First walk since pup hurt her paw, bless her. That paved way for a quiet dog all day which meant shopping for booze and nibbles, got curtain poles and other girly stuff for bedroom, we valeted Tracis car ready for going down to Poole tomorrow with Dad to my sisters, home to clean out rabbits, put shopping away, have a bowl of winter warming soup and then all hell broke loose.... 00.30 now and we aint done yet!! Been on mass clean/move around tonight upstairs sorting through all our (her) clothes before moving them all into new room, we (she) had clothes everybloodywhere! Now the office is twice the size having got rid of the clothes rail that was in there temporarily for three years! Completely cleaned, polished and hoovered all three rooms and landing and bathroom upstairs. Still got to do stairs and kitchen. Van already got four bin bags full to splitting point!!!

BC Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Today I jet power washed the tarmac car parking area to the side of the folks drive way to rid it of moss etc....quite relaxing doing something like this where little thought is required. i was just about to jet wash my car when the high pressure hose burst where I have noticed a kink appearing for some time. I'm sure I will have kept old hoses from past machines I have at home so I need to check before buying a replacement one. I then hosed out the slit and sand from under the arches and gave my car a hand wash. I'm amazed the amount of tar it has attracted in less than three so that's a job to add to next weeks list of jobs to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
