Back to work after a day off yesterday. We had a fair amount of rain yesterday which highlighted a few thin patches in the gravel drive, so I shifted a couple of trailer loads to spread over the problem areas.
De-stoned 3kg of cherries so Caroline could make some Jam. I can smell it at the moment. Delicious. The rest of the vegtable patch is coming along nicely with tomatoes, red and yellow onions, potatoes, lettuce, haricot vert, and of course garlic.
The leak in Lucy's concrete pond has slowly been getting worse, so I've taken advantage of the fact that she spends all her time on her nest incubating the duck eggs to fix the problem. It turns out that the crack run right across and feels like it's been caused by soil movement under the pond. I chiselled out the crack to enlarge it then put in a strong cement and fine sand mix to plug the gap. We will find out tomorrow.
