Great to see Sinead put down her Yurt roots finally. Love the little outdoor kitchen/coffee stop too. Her reaction doing her jig was such fun! Congrats and well done to all! Does she have any plans to do her own YT videos? Your garden looks better than ever this year, even if the grapes/weather let you down. Love your pool area with all the additions this year.

I love the awning also, and the outside kitchen and the area where you will have a bathroom, in the rock area, Glad you and Kirsty could go to Clayfest week, together. The knowledge, will benefit you both. So pleased you both have a new walkie talkie each, to communicate when necessary. Very happy Kirsty has a close friend, living really close.

Sinead's yurt is lovely, especially like the windoor. I think figs that have been dried are so bitter & revolting but could eat them straight off the tree every day of my life. There's a fig tree not far from my home here in South Wales which overhangs the pavement a bit & occasionally I've been lucky & able to pick huge juicy figs on the way past.
