Thoughts about what next

Although the roof and insulation is far FAR from being done we sometimes think a bit about what we will do next on the house - there may be things we need to sort out in advance, such as our accommodation!

Doing the insulation was an easy first choice as it doesn't affect the area we are living in. The next things we can do will involve starting to demolish things.

One idea is to get a caravan with a loo and shower and use that for those facilities and sometimes sleeping and living in. We would also get the outdoor kitchen ready for use so that some of the kitchen stuff could go in there. It needs a new roof and a concrete floor as a minimum.

We have a slight worry about whether we will get a caravan up the drive. Our car cannot turn the corner of the drive in one, and I am not sure about doing it with caravan attached. The trailer is fine, but is much smaller, I sometimes worry it is going to dent the car as I reverse back getting round the corner.

We have plenty of other stuff to do too - such as planting the potager, cutting wood, protecting our new trees, clearing the drive ditch and undergrowth, various fence and land maintenance thing. Getting some more pigs and loads more stuff.
