Our new house

Now don't get me wrong I am going to miss being here at Penole.

It is the most lovely spot and a fantastic house.

It will be a tough day the day I go.

But yesterday we took a builder so see our new place.

That's when it hit.

Having someone who knows a bit about project management and all he could see was possibility.

Within weeks we will have what will in effect be mini flats for my own birth children. Places where they can be themselves and be a bit more free.

We can relatively easily convert the tin roofed barn into a two bed cottage and without the turmoil that the current plans require.

We can create for not much cost another and separate one bed cottage.

The roofless building will fairly simply convert into a simple one bed pad.

All this makes the place look the more impressive and dare I say it commercially viable in it's own right.

And there is place to build a proper shed to protect the fire engines.

Furthermore we have traced the outline of the mill leet and worked out how it can be refilled. Just what every fire engine owner needs; their own lake.

Management seemed a bit apprehensive about that one....
