We had a late night at BLP solicitors lecture hall at their London Bridge offices where Rosa’s new book was launched with a distinguished panel of Inernational Human Rights lawyers and academics.

And now it’s back to work at The Gables where Craig is using the digger to good effect, preparing a trench to take the water to the garage conversions, to the field troughs and to the polytunnel.  He has to work fast as the cows and sheep arrive this afternoon so the trench must be filled in and the fencing put back securely.

Matt is working on replacing the cold water tank in the house, the furniture for the garages arrives in a few minutes and Richard is coming to fit the curtain tracks for the new garage windows.  And tomorrow UK Power networks turns off the electricity in preparation for the new power supply we need for the conversions. We might be facing a weekend without water or power but hey ho all in a good cause!
