My World.



At the moment I'm either elbow deep in bricks and plaster,


or knee deep in blocks and mortar,


or tangled-up in a mess of wires.


Otherwise I'm digging the garden, chain-sawing piles of wood, or mowing (in between waiting for our damaged cooker to be taken away, and a Palm tree to be delivered). I've hardly got time for a glass of rouge.

When will it ever end (did you hear that crack of the whip?)!

Most impressed with your blocklaying skills.

Not entirely my own work, I have a man to do the heavy stuff.

Alden Smith said...

Perhaps you could block up forever all the scoundrels that were involved with your stove fiasco

Sue said...

Keeps you out of mischief!

Cro Magnon said...

If only....

I can't get over the quality of the materials!

The orange/red bricks look very non English bricks.

Is it self-flagellation, or is Lady M wielding that whip? Things are moving along and looking great! I bet you can't wait until the family move in. It will be wonderful to have them close.

Frances said...

Well, we wouldn't want you you get bored !

Cro Magnon said...

They're hollow. Good for insulation.

Cro Magnon said...

We can't wait.... at the moment we only have a Skype relationship.

Cro Magnon said...

No chance!!!

Cro Magnon said...

No it doesn't.

Good or bad? Everything has to abide by European 'norms'.

There is always time for a glass of red!

Good! Everything we get here is from China made to comply with 'good enough for Africa' norms.

Idle hands are the devil's workshop. Glad you're keeping out of trouble. :))) Deb

Isn't it wonderful to have a purpose to your days?

rallentanda said...

I find this all terribly depressing.....to think there is a guy out there who does all of this stuff and cook as well.
I just don't want to believe it.Off now to give my China an earful !

Cro Magnon said...

I'd hate the opposite.

Doc said...

You are a man of many talents Crow, very impressive work.

donna baker said...

I'd rather be doing that than babysitting the grand kids. Must have a strong back.

The Weaver of Grass said...

Didn't know Lady M had a whip to keep you doing all these jobs. Must try getting one for here too.

Kath said...

Been there, done that, got the bad back :-D

Cro Magnon said...

An 'aching' back, Donna.

I told her yesterday to draw-up a 5 year plan for me.
