Challenge Complete!!, we sold most of our land and Farm House! Enabling us to concentrate on Purl Design LLP - Sustainable Architecture and allow our guests to enjoy the peaceful retreat here at The Mill Cottages in either of our one bed cottages, along with our resident pets, ponies, chickens, goats, cats and dogs! We have spent the last year renovating the 400 year old mill for us to live in, completed late 2012 and love every minute!!!... We are looking forward to another successful year.

BEEN A HECTIC WEEK REALLY
Little Toms Cottage is coming along now, this week we have laid the drainage, put in the veranda and rolled the 803 into the car park area (the photo above looks like me and Mark are going head to head with our toys!!..Mark showed me how to use the roller (silly man!), and its not as easy as you might think...I think Mark would have liked a few more straight lines...but curves are fine!!!Ii am trying to get him to teach me how to drive the digger next...watch out you lot!), Alan the electrician is run off his feet so he didn't come till Saturday and still hasn't got the lights...I think there was a problem with deliveries and the snow...but we need it finished ..electric wise next week!!!! that'll please him!...Richard the plumber thought he could connect our gas..but turns out Shell have to do it..so a waiting list it is!!!!AAAHHHH...never mind...the tiles are down and the walls are painted, kitchen still not complete and the furniture isn't made, all the internal fixings need to be done and it needs a darn good clean!!!...But better wait till its finished a bit, the kitchen wall tiles need to go on next. So much to do ...so little time....and that's just the cottage, still got Purl design running full time and cottages to open fully by the end of the month...access statements to do, cleaning, etc...don't even want to think about it ..or I will never sleep!!!
