I am very big on taking photos of things that I might need a history of in the future and she has shown, with her reconstruction of the poly-tunnel, just why it is such a good idea. Keith does look happy working on the bench repairs. And so much exploring to do in your future. Great things.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587652444835060129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-49609053830594009932021-04-24T04:08:00.181-07:002021-04-24T04:08:00.181-07:00We have been very fortunate, especially in the fir...We have been very fortunate, especially in the first lockdown when we just carried on outside as always but had to have groceries delivered of course. We hardly saw anyone else walking but here by Builth it attracts more walkers from all over. Fortunately not on the walks we've been doing!<br /><br />I am glad you are out walking again too - I am sure it will really lift your spirits. <br /><br />So glad to have Tam to figure out the Polytunnel - I would be thinking still!!Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-38682823773705446402021-04-24T04:05:12.245-07:002021-04-24T04:05:12.245-07:00Tam was brilliant with the polytunnel.

I want stuff IN this year though, and then it will hopefully be mainly maintenance and just a few extra plantings when I fall in love with plants.<br /><br />We certainly chose the right house and it had been waiting for us too - she had been trying to sell it for 20 years!!! Sold several times but then fell through - probably due to legal disputes with a neighbour, so I am guessing it had our name on it! We are so fortunate in all respects - the situation, the local walks, the scenery, house cheaper to insure/run/clean etc and only two miles from town.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-63451457658705759892021-04-23T06:44:13.889-07:002021-04-23T06:44:13.889-07:00Green with envy over your walk, that house was suc...Green with envy over your walk, that house was such a lovely choice.
