It’s March, must be time to prepare the veg plot. I’ve dug over 2/3rds of it and I’m enjoying the lovely soil and low weed population thanks to a few years of digging it over.
Still the last third to dig and to remove all the oriental poppies that keep popping up. This year we have an abundance of new veg to try growing.
Shame Mr Fogg has just read the weather forecast threatening arctic weather until Easter. Not planting potatoes yet then..,
It’s been so nice to get in the garden today. We had a small project to create a Japanese garden next to the decking, setup a big hotel and install bird boxes. All looks lovely now too
Today was a sad day where we had to say goodbye to our good friend of almost 30 years, young Mr Stuart Cadman. A time of reflection of the lovely guy who always had a smile and never had a bad word for anyone.
So that there Gov tell us we can go for a cycle on our own, so I did in Tech Stylee!
To finish off the gym we got an exercise bike that hooks up to that there internet thingy and you can build a route on goggle maps and watch all the pretty scenery in the dry. It will increase resistance at hills and decrease it downhill.
So now we are gonna do cycles around where you live (it’s not stalking, just selective cycling) and no-one can tell us off for leaving home.
Next up, a swimming pool in the garden!
I bought Mrs Fogg a knitting set for Christmas and this is her endeavour. Not bad for a first attempt
Well it has been a strange old year and very quiet, but my how this year has flown. With only one day to go until the fatman arrives, the best thing ever is SNOW. Oh yes it’s snowing and we are happy.
So we wish you all a very Merry Christmas 2020 and a Happy New Year 2021.
Today Mrs Fogg and I fitted the gym mirror (1.48m x 1.3m weighting 28kg). We built a made to measure frame to support the beastie. A good team effort that finishes the Fogg’s Body Shop off nicely.
Ooh today we finished the gym shed. It looks amazing and I’m super proud of Mr Fogg who has toiled for the past fortnight to get all the walls done.
I finished it today by laying the flooring and we manoeuvred all the kit in. Plenty of floor space, dry and insulated, I’m so excited to try it!
Well done Mr Fogg!
And for a tally up we have used;
Next up, fitting the 28kg 1.82sqm mirror
It’s autumn and the leaves are falling, even after we chopped half the trees down. For the last 2 years it’s taken days to rake them all up, so this year I decided to go semi hi tech and buy a lawn sweeper to pull along behind the tractor. Mrs Fogg decided since it’s an attachment for her ride on mower that she would sweep them all up. Yet another toy I don’t get to play with.
So Project Gym is well and truly underway now. I’ve finished my latest role and move into a new one in 2 weeks, so that is the challenge timeline to get “Fogg’s BodyShop” ready for its first customer.
Mrs Fogg showed off her DDIY skills (Don’t Do It Yourself), by cutting all the 18 sheets of insulation to size. Next stop 192, 3m tongue and groove cladding boards cut to shape and secured with 2,200 screws
