So much has been done this year!
Here’s a rough list –
Decks of The Vale built
Inside of Vale finished (remaining structure, etc.)
Windows and living room doors installed (our first glass!)
Connection built between The Vale and The Bure
2 other staircases
New (dirt) driveway to The Vale
Interior of The Vale finished off (including home-made counters for the kitchen and bar, and panelling the walls and floors)
Prawn ponds installed and operational
House goats purchased (they’re great for keeping the vegetation under control, and we may get milk and meat from them one day), and some chicks were bought to grow up on the estate, hopefully we’ll get some eggs – eventually!
Surrounds of The Vale developed, including the cutting out of a turning circle for the main entrance at the back
Home-made oven added to Freddy’s Kitchen
The Gully cleared
Lots of little touches around the place (including some pathways to connect everything), and more being produced in the orchard and small veg patches
Three-room bathroom/laundry/service area, added to the back of The Vale
