[Straight Shooter]

The golden sweet corn is about ready to pick, pulled some leeks , picked up four pounds of cherries , turned two pounds of them and 2 ltr of gin 2 lbs sugar and two vanilla pods into a demijohn ....all that remains is a four month wait and a swish every day and we have Morello cherry gin for Christmas ! ....yummy ! ....my attention is now turning to the fall and winter....i need to dig some more land drainage pipes and direct storm water away from banks ....easy with my digger ...the pipes will be delivered next week so i will attack it then.

Although i have my wood store full of firewood (and outside stock undercover) enough for this winter ...i will spend this week splitting and stacking out the lower store (i logged up months back) i want to get back to a year in front.......and the generators will need checking and starting .....and general maintenance around the ground and house....planted my Christmas potatoes.

Had a tidy up in the workshop today ....yes ....again ! and my stores .....yes again tomorrow ! ...starting to decide what projects i will get on with in the workshop this winter ....in the warm and dry and my coffee simmering away.....like a pig in shit ! .
