Hi All,
Just a short one tonight.
After ingenious Heath Robinson cobbling together of a 25mm irrigation line from the high pressure water supply from the creek to an old fire hose and then to a garden hose and shoving the whole thing into the blocked stormwater pipe from both directions I unblocked it. A small win. Followed by the joy of cleaning 50 metres of gutter. The bloody goats got into the chookhouse last night after I left the door open and vandalised it. I am researching goat recipes to suggest to the boss hehe.
Susan had a busy morning including a trip to see Helen and Bob to do some work in the farmhouse. We are a bit light on for helpers at the moment, although having said that there is only one room to clean tomorrow since the rest of the guests are staying extra nights so there will be a few special projects on the go.
We actually seem to be making headway in settling in and setting up some systems. I am trying to get a handle on what we need to be doing in the pool treatment/testing area to conform to the requirements of the local council.
We had some nice rump steak for tea tonight cooked by myself. I managed to get some flames in the microwave when I was warming the butter. I am not used to butter wrapped in aluminised paper. Fortunately I was standing next to it when the flames erupted so was able to pull it out and extinguish it before any damage occurred. I did fell like a bit of a tool though especially with the hierarchy in the kitchen!
Hope you all have a great weekend. Weekends here are much the same as weekdays really except we don't have the luxury of the support staff so longer hours for Susan on reception.
Next Tuesday we get our first pay! A landmark of sorts
Cheers Simon
