Chilly start this morning but we’re expecting another sunny, warm (for the time of year) day today. The guys laying the concrete base for my new tool store had a slight setback yesterday when the chain drive of their tractor-mounted concrete mixer broke, but they got it welded and running again after about an hour or so and the job was completed by the early evening.<\/p>\n

As expected, the main problem came from the constantly falling acorns. They couldn’t be prevented so I’ve just had to accept that there will be marks in the floor where acorns dropped on it while the concrete was still soft. I guess that won’t be a problem however, once the floor has had stuff like my ride-on mower and concrete mixer on it for a while and the building has been used as a workshop a few times. And I describe it as a ‘building’ because now that it’s finished, you can see that it will be quite large, with the footprint of a single garage.<\/p>\n

Today I’ve got a little bit of shopping to do but after that I’ll put on my working togs and get onto hand-levelling the area for the caravan. I doubt that I’ll move the caravan up there either today or tomorrow as the meeting with my builder will be in the afternoon, but my plan will be to do the move on Saturday. And what a relief that will be. It was very noticeable this morning how much colder it was down where the caravan currently is compared to up-top where it will be. So hopefully that will make things a bit more confortable when I get out of bed each morning, because it’s certainly now beginning to get a bit nippy. And I’ll also have running water.
