Had a chance to put on a couple of layers of lime white wash over the dome. I’m really very surprised it came out so white as the first application was pretty much see-through. The 2nd application was less of a surprise (Even though it too was see-through) but I was pleased at quite how white it’s come out. Now just waiting for a free weekend for Tiff to come back and paint him!
One of the things I used to really enjoy was baking bread and I rarely get round to it anymore. So I found a supplier of sourdough starters (this is a 15 year old one) and got it going at home
After 10 days of bubbling, Herman has been cut drawn and quartered into small slices.
Very tasty he was too!
I'm Tim, a 31yr old ex-Allotmenteer. My wife and I used to have a small 5 rod plot in South Essex where we grew all manner of veg. I'm also involved in brewing the odd keg of beer.
When getting down the allotment got too hard and our circumstances changed we bought a house with a 65ftx30ft garden, which we're converting into a mini orchard and veg beds.
We get up to some weird and wonderful projects - we've built a small boat, a pig roaster (powered by a windscreen wiper), a chicken run, raised beds and try our hands at all sorts of stuff getting us closer to being 'self sufficientish'.
The hope is to introduce chickens soon and hopefully let them free range during the day.
