The Gugywagon


This is the official weekend residence of the infamous "Gugster". Previously a general layabout he's now pretending to be our builder!! Evidence of his presence include empty Penguin wrappers, books about Jack The Ripper and a three legged pussy cat purring happily. We interviewed several people for this key role but settled on Guges for five reasons:
1. He was cheap.
2. He pretends to know what he's doing.
3. He keeps the kids entertained with his world famous hunchback impressions.
4. He agreed to call me boss even though he's my older brother.
5. It's great fun poking him with a sharp stick. Especially when he's asleep.

A view down the valley in front of the house on a sunny, Sunday November morning with the mist clearing.


This is one of our fields. We have 7 acres in all - mainly in two paddocks behind the house and alongside the drive. We also have some land in front of the farm buildings too.

And this is the view from the caravan window - and Pixie!

This is our caravan which we're living in whilst we renovate the farm buildings to make our new home.
