1 November - Clearing up leaves
It's clearly autumn as our garden is full of leaves so the whole family (after some bribery) heads out with the rakes...

5 November - Busy with work
Not much movement on the house as I have a lot of (money-grubbing) work to do this week.

13 November - Pipework

I help my father to connect his house to the watermain in new MDPE pipe. All goes well but his wall now needs rebuilding.

17 November - Rebuilding

There is a false wall in one of our bedrooms underneath the valley gutter which needs rebuilding - I am going to put some wardrobes inside.

23 November - Red and yellow and pink and green...

Amazingly a double rainbow appears outside the window.

24 November - Plastering

I replaster inside the new wardrobe.

26 November - Wild boar
I have agreed to host a butchery demonstration for the local Slow Food group, and this starts to distract me as I need to organise a place to do it and also suitable equipment etc.

28 November - More plastering
The ceiling needs skimming too...
