High folks,
 
Sorry I haven't been blogging but last week was all go, Rob and Ruth departed Thursday for there two month trip to the south island, after extending Ruth's part of the bed in the campervan, perhaps now a good nights sleep will be achieved ! don't know how she slept on a 500mm shelf only 1300mm long ! ! .
Lyn has been demolishing plant beds and concreting, I eventually finished the deck base and have started building the deck proper, we had a good weekend of manual labour, sore at first but now the body is getting back into it and the muscles don't seem as painful, a disadvantage of being afloat .
The house is also progressing well as the house surveyor has been in and we have applied for the LIM report, all houses here have there plans for drainage,layout, and refurbs registered so when you apply all the info coms back, so you can check against existing .
 Once this is complete we then put a deposit down , the solicitors do there thing , then we pay the balance in an agreed time frame.
This weekend coming up is Masterton fair day, its strange to describe it bet its a huge rural fair in the Wiarapa wine region , no clues there as to what goes on apart from purchasing pickled onions ect !
 Lyn is on a fact finding tour of the art displays, she's been banging out paintings in various styles and is displaying at the Academy of Fine arts this autumn.
 
That's all for now folks
