We have to move the granddaughters pet pig from its present shed so I went to see a pig farmer mate of mine and got 2 sheets of the pig-ark tin and over the weekend we built this for it , should move it into its new home next weekend when I have strengthened the fence

Over the last few weeks when I have had 5min to spare I have been taking down my old fence and pulling out the conifer trees then putting back a new post an rail fence, there was 2 wild cherry tree roots in the way which took a bit of digging/pulling to get out then a another nights work to fill the holes in , the fence is only to keep the dog in but he spends most of the day asleep on the settee ,o well it keeps the wife happy only another 10 post holes to dig

I see Julie in normal position paint brush in hand! Maybe if you pulled her hat up she would have not missed that bit? Is that for the pig or the grand kids as they seem to like it just like Christmas toy to one side and play in the box!  Must go got 40 new models for spalding to finish!

Always busy Mr Smith what with another show in a row at Norwich this weekend at the east anglia vintage spectacular! Good to hear that you keeping livestock in or out! So what the difference holes bigger? In this wire and charging more for it I guess. Also thanks for your help at spalding at the weekend which made for a great show well attended and lovely people as normal hobby very much alive and well a posed to some thinking it's on the decline!.
