First Day In The Barn

Hi Folks,


I'm now at the new place, been busy at work today clearing a gulley drain and bramble and weeds. I took pictures, however I'm unable to upload them as I have no cable connector for the pc. As soon as I am able i'll upload again.  I have just used these pictures for illustration purposes.








My first day at the farm was nice, wen't for a walk across the farmers fields and spotted some deer, didn't get very close to them as they bounded over the fence as soon as they spotted me.







After that, I went for a walk across the valley and saw lots of  bats flying about as by this time it was dusk.





I headed back to the barn where i'm currently sleeping and was startled by something flapping about. I soon realised it was a bird and later identified it as a Swallow. The bird stayed in the loft of the barn all night as he couldn't see once it left the loft due to the darkness. After some encourage ment in the morning, the swallow left the loft and went on its way.

That's all there is to report for now.  Will be on again soon. Take care all. :0)

Moving To a New Place 25-09-2012


Today I'm moving on to a new place. I will be helping out on a farm which needs help in clearing and fixing it's barns and fixing up the out houses to be made suitable for accommodation.


 

Also there is a large overgrown patch of land out the front of the farmhouse that needs some serious clearing.  This is just some of the work that is needing to be done. I have agreed with the owner of the farm, that I will work a couple of days a week for my basic accommodation and food needs. That said I will help out on the farm when I'm not busy with other work elsewhere.


I will still be available to work for others during my time at the farm. If you require my help with anything in the meantime please get in touch through either facebook or twitter (there are links down the right hand side of this page).

Initially I will have limited access to internet until I have worked out how I can connect on a more steady basis.


 I am really looking forward to this chapter in my story and am grateful to have been given the opportunity to have a more substantial base for myself over the coming winter months.

That's all for now, as soon as I'm able I'll send an update. Take care.

DTW Vlog 20120908 Putting Things Straight


I don't use money, I can't help it if others do. I just hope that I can inspire others to at the very least interact with the monetary system less often. To see the video please visit and subscribe to my youtube channel here ... http://youtu.be/M80ecDDeGhY
