Calling brave hungry souls

The builders have recommended that we run drainage down the side of the house into a large soak pit under the lawn. The occupants of the house in the valley, just below our property will probably be relieved. I suspect at the moment that they just get run-off from our garden and the underground spring.

More mud, more noise.

Still, we have a cellar full of good wine, and I’m planning to invite brave people to dine with us regularly, so that we have an excuse to get through it.

The only pre-requisite for eating with us will be that you can jump over a moat after several bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon without falling into the clay pit.

Jacket Not Required – Gumboots a must.
