forty-two: progress on bathroom excellent, roof delayed due rain then roofers on other work. Electrical first fix slow due Covid illnesses. fence is up and i hope to put in the final short panel today.
september and more so october manic workload.
i've build a 15 sq m (golden ratio) cabin and am gradually fitting it out while living in it due building works. still officially a site shed/office - so could well be removed in a few months time - i will ponder change of use application. hopefully i can pick up some of my interests again.
cooking outside with air-fryer if it is not raining to avoid stinking up the cabin with cooking smells.
