Henere arrived around 9:15am and worked through till 5:15pm making extraordinary progress on moving the totara batten fence (see below).

Otherwise it was a rather jumbled day; Bramble refused her breakfast and ate it for lunch instead. We didn’t go for our walk round the orchard until after 4:00pm, nor did she get groomed until after dark. But now the fire is burning brightly, I’ve done the washing and broomed all the floors and taken out the rubbish bin so am anticipating a pleasant evening watching the third in the current series of Lewis.

Food: breakfast as usual, lunch was a potato, bacon and egg pancake comprising six rashers of bacon and four eggs, half each for me and Henere. Dinner of lamb chops, mash, carrots, and sprouts with pudding of cereal, banana, and cream.

The photo shows the fence made to run in line with the back of the cottage. The two large strainer posts in and wire and battens re-affixed. The running posts and gates are still to come.
