Post office duty for me this morning. Scarlett had asked to come with me so her and I set off down to the village. We had a fairly brisk morning of customers both for shop and post office business and for cups of tea and coffee and chatting. Ady met the boat as we had petrol and some amazon coming off then he came to collect us. We waited for our veg to be sorted and the post to be done and brought everything up together.
Home for lunch and catch up on The Apprentice from last night. It rained all afternoon so Scarlett and I watched wildlife documentaries, she painted (she’s making Christmas decorations) and I did some stuff online too. Davies was making the most of wind turbine action meaning lots of internet. I’ve been hanging out on a few off grid facebook groups including a newly set up one so had posted some pics of our livestock, crops and our stuff we sell which generated lots of comments, questions and interesting chat. Made me realise how far we have come in under 4 years and as Ady and I were saying if we’d known five years ago when we were about to set off WWOOFing that we’d have done as much as we have we would be thrilled. Probably if we’d known how tough it’s been too we might have thought twice of course…
I cooked dinner and made bread, Ady and I had showers and listened to Popmaster from earlier and then I got a comment on the WW blog which smarted a bit. Probably fair and if one of my friends or someone who actually knows me had made it I would have taken it well but coming from someone I don’t know who has chosen to come and read my blog it just made me a bit pissed off, or ‘American pissed’ as we call it these days (watching too much US TV 😉 ).
Tomorrow is supposed to be wet and windy too so probably not a pig day. Might dodge the rain to do some shed stuff, or might just do lots of crafts indoors instead.
