33. My first Chinese Takeaway for several years!! So long ago that I can't remember having one!!
Had Honey King Prawns and fried rice, could only manage a third of the rice and I feel very full. Nice feeling.

The last few weeks have galloped by in a blur, but this last week (Week 33) I mixed concrete and used a mixer for the first time. 32 degrees in the shade and I was in full sun - what a day to choose!

This weeks new thing. First meal in our new dining room
Friends brought a picnic including the table and chairs
and a bottle of fizz so we could celebrate getting out of the ground 
. It was raining and we got lots of very strange looks from people driving past because we looked ridiculous . We didn’t care it was great fun and the food was lovely .The remains

You should picnic there every Saturday, as the walls are built around you. Make a great record of the Build.

I made a flower press today. Will report back in a couple of weeks if it’s been a success.
I might need reminding

I bought a Box of Random books about half of which I'll read or skim. The others will be given away, a few have already gone.

Last week was mostly putting sips panel walls up.
