Much Sunnier and Happier Today

Well it’s been a much nicer day today and although I’ve still been stuck inside on the computer with a big backlog of work to catch up on (I think that maybe we, as Pure Portugal, are becoming a victim of our own success - we are now managing to earn our living from the business but it means a lot less time to spend on the land and out riding).

But, I’ve been full of inspiration for finishing old/existing projects and starting new ones. Like the low impact woodland home pictured above. We are definitely going to build one of these. We never wanted to live in a concrete box but at the time we needed a quick, cheap housing solution - so up went our little 3 room home - we did try to incorporate as many eco-friendly features as we could, but at the end of the day it’s still basically a concrete box.

Also I am determined to get my garden in order, to fully implement my plans for a raised bed, automatically irrigated, no-dig system. If I put the time and energy in now then it should, in theory, save me a whole load of time and energy in the future.

Stumble it!
