It was quite clear to me now that Januray was not the best time of year to be doing landscaping.

This January was special as well since it was the wettest on record since Noah took to his Ark.



One visitor here likened the situation to the Somme and the helpful comments we heard like 'Well, Its good for the Garden' ...............Well it would be GREAT if we had one!!!!!



Despite the meteorological challenges we did make some progress and as the mornings got lighter and the days a bit drier we continued in our quest to get the patch into some sort of order. Our Landscape Contractor Tim, has been doing a great job.



Yesterday was exciting if you are into big toys....we had a mobile batch mixer with pump on site to deliver our concrete...photos attached...by lunchtime they had pumped around 15 cu metres onto the site with a few retained firemen from the local station helping Tim...you can see the professional way that they handle the pump hose!!!!



Huf are due to come and do their annual inspection in a couple of weeks.....everything works pretty much perfectly and I hav very little to moan about.



A jounalist from the Sunday Express has said she wants to do a feature on the Huf Hauses, keep an eye open for photos of this one in the Sunday rags!!!



I just wish I had stuck to a German Kitchen, after all everything else here is German......we had a nicely designed model from Magnet, but the trouble is the veneer is falling off after only nine months....imagine what its going to be like after 9 years. Those peoplle at Magnet suggested that I remove all the doors take them to Tunbridge Wells and they would swop them with some new ones............. Nice idea, but are they in the real world.???

I first visited your blog, but my antispyware said that he is infected with an unknown virus.
I deleted the virus through this AntiSpyWare.
The virus does not manifest itself but gradually destroys information on the computer.
