We managed to do a ‘deal’ with the local contractor. Free hay cutting for a free website 😉 When they cut the hay we got 100 bales! Not bad!

The office is nearly done! We’re moving in anyway!
Here’s the ‘before’ shot when it was just a garage…
And after the garage roller doors were removed, this is the finished outside… We wanted it to appear non-descript and plain 😉
And now for the inside! We’re going to move in over the next day or two. Looking forward to it! A few bits left to do but we’ll knock them off over the next week or so.
My office is the green corner cube 😉
We’re powered and wired for 5x workstations.
Will tackle the kitchen over the next weekend. It’s kitset, so should be a doddle to whack together.
Shower, toilet and laundry going in. Will be done in a day or two.
Telecomms below going to the house.
The new shed takes shape!
We’re turning the current garage into an office. This means we won’t have a garage, so this is the new shed going up…
Jack’s Treehouse Finished!
Finally finished Jack’s treehouse! Now he can have the mates over to party! I made this over two weekends from scrap timber, but it’s massively solid! Nothing will knock this fort down!
Work starts on the Tree Hut!
The previous owners left a heap of wood so I decided to put it to good use. This weekend I built a large vege garden for Sarah and had enough wood left over to start on a tree hut for Jack. I made a good start, but need to find some free timber to do some more.
Sarah’s arena gets a groom. Should be nice and bouncy now!
After moving in we discovered that Sarah’s arena didn’t have a top surface. It was just a crusher dust base, but the previous owner had never put a surface on it. So unfortunately we needed to put 75 tonnes of sand on the top! The trucks came today at 8:30am… Never boring at the Stones!
The office is progressing!
The office is coming along well. It’ll look awesome when done in a few weeks! Below is the front of the office, showing the entrance and huge window in my office.
Looking in the front door…
This ‘cube’ is my office. Windows to let good light in.
Laundry, toilet, shower.
Looking towards the kitchen. Bathroom entry is on the right. Window looks out to the back lawn.
Exposed trusses, high ceilings.
Sarah’s Garden getting sorted
Sarah’s been working really hard in the garden. When we moved in there were weeds over the entire garden. She’s sorted that, put on bark and added some plants so it looks great!
Below is the beginning of the huge vege garden I’m working on. Will be awesome having fresh vegetables!
The office taking shape!
Not the fastest effort, but the builders are doing a good job – making progress on the new office. Looking forward to being in there!
