This past weekend

came and went. Due to a massive power outage which lasted more than 3 days in the Strubens Valley area, Builders Warehouse were not cutting boards to size on Sat. morning, so I didn't get the stuff I needed for the first coffin, and so it must wait for next weekend. I know I could have bought the board and cut it up myself at home, but that's not the point. a) I can't cut as straight / square / precise as their machine can, and be, it could be cheaper if I get it precut, as it will save on time.
All part of the plan. So I spent time working on the bar counter top, and the boys helped. It's coming on nicely, and I should be in a position to stain / varnish / colour and then seal it next weekend sometime. Then I need to start on the rest of it.

That's the boys doing the sanding / polishing (fighting in between) thing.
Witness finished digging the holes for the planned tree planting, so now I need to get soil and compost to fill the holes with (and don't forget the bone meal), and then the trees. Still am not sure which of the African Thorn Trees (Acacia) we want to plant, but we will get there.
Also, the Princess is pushing for me to get the big plant pots which she wants to put down the driveway, about 10 of them. Will need loads of soil and compost and plants for that too.
With spring coming soon, there is sure to be a big amount of pressure for me to get more of the gardens done.
Oh well, beats getting drunk, whoring around, getting lap dances at Teasers and such....
