I harvested the above a few weeks ago. Plenty of potatoes, onions, shallots, carrots and tomatoes. The lettuce came thick and fast over the summer. Probably my best ever harvest as I have not bought any vegetables this year.
My bags are packed and I'm ready to go to ... I have a few small farms to see in ... I'll let you know when I settle into ... I never like to talk about plans a) because I rarely plan, I prefer to let life take me where it will b) if I do plan then it always goes wrong.
I have been experimenting with junk and built a solar AA battery charger, which will charge my radio, mobile phone and lights. My laptop and razor will have to run off the car.
One of my few purchases recently was for a Kelly Kettle. I have converted it to gasify wood, which gives a cleaner and more efficient burn so that water boils more quickly and with less fuel.
I intend heating water and cooking with wood even though I may end up in a house with all mod cons until I find somewhere to buy. My intention is to live as I intend to so no taking it easy with switch flicking because I just can't be paying bills.
Interesting visit to a car breaker's yard, yesterday. So much useful stuff lying around.
Signing off for now. Reporting back in a few weeks time.
