So! ..it does remember how to rain, I just hope it remembers to stop as well, after two months of no rain at all we now have very heavy rain, we managed to harvest the peaches before it started but the maize is still in the field. The peaches are now bottled and all we have to do is to find somewhere to store them, the next job on the agenda is the downstairs loo and a large larder, the sun room is almost finished, and more pointing has been done by our last helpers, but there's still one big wall to complete, then comes the major job, converting the old kitchen and adjoining barn into independent accommodation.

A couple of weeks ago was the Lugo honey festival, there were around twenty five producers all with wonderful displays and some super honeys including Organic honey which of course we bought.
