Had a great time watching Iosefa delve deep into Sumerian culture with this one.
This one had waaaaay to much research than was necessary but it definitely paid off.

Finally convinced the better half to do a watch through of the Star Wars movies.
4,5,6,1,2,3 Solo then maybe Andor or at least the first episode to convince her, Rogue One, and lastly 7,8,9.

5 films in and she’s taken to calling me Jarjar.

This has backfired terribly.

In saying that I’m massively happy to have completed a 16.5 metre 2 metre high fence which I over engineered the crap out of to survive the Scottish storms.

Note to self. Do not go to a spa the weekend before a weeks worth of manual labour. Sure you’ll have soft skin and feel refreshed, but your little baby hands will be torn into 1000 pieces moving one and a half ton of soil.

There’s some brilliant creators involved here so please follow the campaign and help us launch in style!
