Further progress.

The first coat of render is almost complete on the house.
Duncan put in huge hours on the render when he was home over July, and I've been able to continue  since.  The really high stuff is a pain to get on as we don't have access to decent scaffolding, but we're getting there.

The heifer (Poppy) seems to be progressing well with her pregnancy, with the battle being to keep the weight off her so she doesn't have calving issues.  Complaining about too much good feed is not a bad problem to have, I guess.
..and as part of the preparation for Spring, Alex (my granddaughter) has started painting hive boxes.
