People who see what we're doing fall into two camps. The first group are just as blown away by the vision, the possibilities and the challenge. They enthuse and make encouraging and complimentary noises. The other group don't say much at all - just kind of smile and nod sympathetically. As I mentioned here in an earlier post, it's a case of "How do you eat an elephant?"
Well the next mouthful came serendipidously following an overheard conversation in the tearoom. We asked some friends if they knew anyone who wanted a caravan and Celia, sitting at the next table, immediately told us she had a volunteer arriving at the weekend and would we mind if she took us up on our offer. The next day Chris arrived with his tractor and within half an hour there was an empty space in the front garden.
With the van out of the way, the forestry team were able to move in and take down a couple of trees which had grown too big for their boots - (or should that be roots?)
The net result was the most amazing view from the house.
that, and a few logs for the fire
