494

I rigged up an ugly-structure to protect my pile of sand from the light hearted trampling of the lambs. Belatedly. But not too late.

Finished cutting the flooring members to length, and laid some practice floor on top of the members to see what it was like. It was good. Unfortunately, when I dug into my pile of would be flooring timbers, most of them were rotten, the result of years of outdoor storage. Unfortunate. I’ll need to come up with a new plan for the floor.

I feel sick in the guts courtesy of about 8 mini hashbrowns smeared in tartare sauce earlier on. I intended them as a snack only, I’ll rustle up a salad now I think. Sick in the guts having been said, I’m pretty pleased to have put in an hour or so in the evening after work.

  2. Ha. Well, when I was sitting in an office in Wellington I dreamed of building something. Genuinely doing something productive with my own hands. This is what I've come up with. You back in Chch at all over the Christmas period?

  3. No, will be looking to come back around March or April I think. Might tie it in with a trip to Wellington for the NZ vs Aus test. The shack is coming along quite nicely. Drop me an email sometime
