Not strictly boat stuff but Stuart who helps out down at the farm has cleared my front lawn and border of nettles etc. He did all this in less than a day. He is amazing - you just wind him up and set him going and when you turn around the place has been blitzed!
I decided to do this because someone asked on the canal forum "what do you do about your garden when you go off on a long trip for the summer etc?"
I don't like mowing at the best of times but the thought of coming back to a hayfield was not to be borne. So we are creating as cheaply as possible a maintenance free garden. Maybe this year our village can win best village! I will post the finished article when it has been finalised.
And at the back Bryan is getting ready to do the engine room. Now that it is summer he felt a shelter was needed.
Something to do with monsoons I believe.
