The Fence…
We are very excited that our fence was finished today. We are most grateful to Jamahl for all his help! Hopefully the cows, and the son, will stay away from the dam now. Jamahl and Monte hard at work The barb… We are convinced that this will deter cattle (and people) from the fence, despite […]
Fences
In case you are worried about my little wandering son, you’d be happy to know that Monte, with the help of the fabulous Jamahl, is working on the fence, and the blokes reckon it will be completed today! We are very much looking forward to the rest of the fencing being done too. We are […]

Power Issues
For a while Monte and I have been debating the issue of grid power versus off grid power. Obviously there are pros and cons for each. Hence the long debate. A while ago now, Monte and I decided that we would connect to grid power ie mains electricity. We thought that it would be a […]
