I am his biggest fan LS ! .....he does stuff I can only dream about ! And such a babe magnet ! Lol.
All I am doing these days is logging, splitting firewood ....day in day out , although we have enough split for the next two years , by the time I get through this lot that in itself will be another two / three years worth ! But I will not deviate from the task till it’s finished ....so onwards I go .....however I do take some excursions ....made the very last elderberry syrup ( top of tree fruits ) made three pints , fired up the generators after checking oil levels all three took two pulls .....tickled up four chains for the saw .
The Sil has restacked the logs ALL the way down the drive ...90 ft long .....and full , 6ft wide and 3ft high one long row in order to get the beast and trailer past ......split a trailer full for my brother ....it’s loaded and hooked up ready for me to drop it off tomorrow ......dehydrated some more Mint and going to do some bay leaves tomorrow .
On a positive note I have finished splitting the big rounds of ash today , these buggers were 550 mm dia and 400mm thick and bloody heavy , all the other stuff are a more manageable 400 mm and down dia .
I will get to the cleaning of gutters , raised beds , and general cleaning of the drives ( using a blower ) ......I will get around to the wood chip eventually ....I alway have uses for that around the garden . Charge on !
