again up at dawn, this time i'm sorting out my front garden and the pond which seems to be loosing water. one of my fish died last week and i'm not sure i want to replace it, two is a good number and they seem to get on well without adding any additional fish. at one point i had 5 and i've always felt uneasy about odd numbers when it comes to fish.the plants in the front have gone somewhat feral and require pruning, so many fronds from palms are cluttering up the lawn, it took me a while just to pile them up. anyway's it's beginning to look somewhat better although i can't really get to work until the garage is completed and all the rubbish at the side of the house is removed. these afghan builders are functioning on a different time continuity than me, they are good guys but clearly have a completely different sense of urgency than me.
however the interior is taking shape, it's beginning to look like a new space.

down the beach it is market day and all the usual shmutter on display, i can't stand all that beach style stuff, it's kinda vanilla and basic. not really my cup of tea. the suns out and back home mission control is drenched in golden light streaming direct from heaven. i feel good and ready for the adventure.
