Well, we've celebrated our second Christmas here at Cumulus with roast goose. As it was just the two of us here for Christmas Day, we are now looking forward to a January comprised of goose curry, goose risotto, goose au vin, steak surprise (the surprise is that it's actually goose). Tonight it's going to be goose noodle soup.
On the garden front, a Christmas thank-you to John and Paula for augmenting the orchard with a Badsey Peach, and to Marcus and Penny who have supplied not only a mixed juniper shrubbery but also some liquid juniper product to toast it in its new home. Today some of the slabs on the west patio which were just fouling the bottom of the bifold doors have been lifted and replaced (we hope) slightly lower down. There have been a couple of frosts and some rain since the earth was topped up over the gabions, so hopefully it's settled a bit and once the soil is a little less frozen I can replant everyone made homeless - they're all in temporary digs in trays in the greenhouse.
