Well this weather is certainly putting a lot of us through the mill,
after reading a few members stories, i'm glad i bought a slope,
how are you all coping….plenty of mud for us, thankfully no flooding

Surface mud in walking zones, or where the ground got a bit mashed from the electrical connection. There is water in the trench that will become a track one day - just need the cash at the same time as it is dry!
All else is fine.
Oh, being in a caravan, on top of a hill ... not just any hill, the hill that protects Bodmin Moor from the worst of the weather coming off the Atlantic ... that is exciting in the wind!

hehe
we're lucky to be much more sheltered, we've sited the caravan in a field of a bout 1.5ac that is bordered by trees on S/E/W and by our woodland to the north
It is a fairly windy site in general but the treelines break the worst of it before getting to the caravan
We have had a few important job changes, we where going to build a porch for the caravan, as we are going from mud to caravan..but the goat house had a leak, so new roof was erected,
the carpet can always be changed in warmer and dryer weather…the animals come 1st, we are still dry and warm enough...
been lucky with the wind…as we sited the caravan in a dip, and its protected against most winds…the track to the caravan is a quagmire, but that will have to wait until it dries out a bit, i need to build a small 12ft x 9ft barn type building as the goat will kid in 3 weeks….
if all goes to plan…but that will boil down to how much work and how successful the business becomes….its a hard route, and so it should be,
if it wasn't, every rich person would be buying land and building on it
a little farm house on a working farm is our dream….and thats down to us to achieve it
lovely ground frost this morning, that made life a lot easier to get around, the ground is solid ….
just thinking about adding a porch to the caravan, a boot room would be very handy, but like most things…something always comes up that is far more important…just building a temp shed for the goat to kid,
