Evolution.


When I built our 'tower', I was determined that it should remain as primitive as possible. No water, no electricity, and no mod-cons of any sort. Simply a bed, a cupboard, and a few candles for light.

It remained like that for several years, but last year I did run an electricity cable to the interior for the convenience of a couple of bedside lamps.


Lady M has now been suggesting that we install a basic bathroom onto the side of the tower. This would involve taking water to it, installing a new fosse septique, and destroying the new garage that I recently built for the mower.

So, will I be giving-in to her wishes? Not bloody likely! I might do a more professional job on the electrical installation, but nothing else.

I like it as it is!

  1. Oh come on! You've got to keep your Lady happy. I agree with her 100%. A small bathroom is a necessity, an essential. Especially as you get older. You may be sleeping there by yourself next summer.
    Lady M, get Kimbo on the job!!! Without Cro knowing 😄😄

    1. It's only a short walk to the house bathroom... that will have to suffice!

  2. You say there is a garage. Could that be converted.

    1. Not really. It's OK for the mower, but a bit flimsy for anything else.

  3. A gazunder and a water jug should suffice.

    1. That's my preference too, but it's more of a gaz-outdoors, than a gazunder.

  4. Makes me wonder if Lady M is trying to sort out some alternative living accommodation for you....start worrying when she suggests a cooker and kitchen sink as well!

    1. Ha ha.... you could be right. However, it is my favourite bedroom!
