<\/p>\nNot much to report.<\/p>\n
Have been doing a bit of networking, hoping to get a bit of larch or douglas fir from Tree Station in Manchester, who do urban and suburban tree surgery and woodland management and mill any felled trees for local, small-scale use. I’m hoping to go visit their yard in the next couple of weeks and get some wood from which to build the planned shed\/workspace over the summer.<\/p>\n
I’ve also been cooking up plans to pimp the caravans into something a bit more glamping-appropriate, including building little porches for them and kitting out the inside with better shelves, etc.<\/p>\n
But none of this yields any pictures yet…<\/p>\n
All I’ve got by way of pictures is my regular thursday\u00a0 trip to the market, on Junk Day.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Very often I find useful old tools, dishes, interesting books (like last week’s ceiling paper find) and this week I found a great, faux-victorian jacket thing for a pound.<\/p>\n

Even if you don’t find anything worth buying, it’s worth the trip just for the atmosphere.<\/p>\n
I’m off to Somerset for a week of teaching dance (yes, actual paid work! Hooray!)\u00a0 and then it’s Kinnersley, so things will likely be a bit quiet for a bit. But then it will be properly spring (please god) and things around here will pick up the pace!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
