Scrap

After just having to scrap my lovely 19 year old car ,I realised how price can influence activities such as fly tipping. I was expecting at least eighty to one hundred pounds for the car,  instead they say scrap prices have dropped to fifty pounds a tonne reducing its value to forty three pounds and twenty pounds for the catalytic converter.. At these prices small scale retrieval of metals from streets by people has reduced leading to people just tipping by the road side etc.  I am glad to say I've managed to find a much younger car, only 15 years old thereby km keeping another car of age on the road which means one less new one and the excessive use of energy to make it

First shooting of the year

Well we've managed to gain the shooting rights on a 80 acre site nearby.  So a visit was needed. Just on a rough shoot enough wood pigeon for two peoples meals, good start I say so yesterday spent the day building 2 hides so as to cut down setting up time, I just hope the storms last night didn't do them too much damage.
I know shooting is not everyone's cuppa but it provides a welcome source of organic freerange meat for myself and akso helps tge farmer with his crop.

The solstice

Hope you all had a great solstice. And are looking forward to a low waste Christmas.

Been a long time

Well tonight was my first visit to my local beekeepers group, interesting video and some people watching, lol.  One thing I have found is how hard it is to find a small piece of land to rent for veg, bees and possibly fowl. I must keep trying though

Hope

A new start
Waiting to see if the land I'm thinking of renting is suitable.  All depends on the councils idea of garazing.

A space

The dead grass is all thats left of my lovely caravan which I must say gave me some of my best nights sleep ever. Hope its new owner  enjoys it just as much.
