Well, I made it, but my back didn't. It wasn't lugging boxes, it was chopping wood for the G****m fire with an outsize axe! The place has an old coal+wood powered cooker/heating system..dunno, but it might have to go.

We arrived to find a bull in the garden eating the flowerbeds. I took a chance and scared it off, luckily it ran. First job: repair that field fencing.

The barn has swallows, very cute but the little f*****s are crapping over my W116, I guess I'll have to live with that.

I can see us here for some time, depending on what th ehousing market does..been growing at >15% pa last two-three years, just crazy. It means that any young people are screwed if they want a reasonable home..any of you guys know why this has happened? - it seems really undesirable, for some people at least.
