a year on

Nearly a full year from completion and we've settled into the extension quite comprehensively. In fact, I don't think we can remember how we lived without the added space. The yellow-ness (if that's a term) has faded from the timber and a silver grey patina is setting in. No, we've not painted the windows yet...or the roof...but, you know, we've been, uh, busy...

While last year was pretty much only about the building project, this year we have focused on the garden. Beds were added, potatoes dug in, trees were planted. The results of this hard work (mostly D's) have been enjoyable. Spuds, raspberries, strawberries, carrots, blackcurrents and yes, apples!
