Coming along nicely

Work has continued preparing the greens ready for seeding in the spring. The picture shows the first actual construction, Jon is digging out the bunker to the left of the second green.

There was a bit of drama another day when Jon was working on a ditch and a geyser erupted from a long forgotten drainage pipe which runs across the land. After making some repairs Jon has turned this to his advantage by adding some access points for future use.

Claudia has returned to Switzerland for a few days to catch up with friends and family. We were all amused last week to hear the headline news from there last week...Switzerland has run out of grit too...we thought it was just us Brits that couldn't get road clearance right!

Fog & Admin

Apologies for not adding this post sooner. I have been waiting for some new pics to arrive from Tollie but the weather has been too foggy recently for photography. So I thought you might like this shot from a few weeks back showing a storm front approaching the land.

Jon & Claudia have been busy recently with a variety of admin tasks, deadly dull but very necessary. Permission was received last week to demolish the toilet/shower block. This has to be done by the end of the month so watch this space for some good before and after shots.

On a personal note, Claudia & Jon have been putting down roots in the community and threw a couple of small dinner parties last week showcasing some Swiss specialities such as rosti and raclette. Claudia has found a local hairdresser and joined Weightwatchers...eight pounds lost in two weeks..well done Claudia.
