Our mains water supply has frozen solid so we've been forced to evacuate our caravan. We've left an electric heater on in the hope that the water pipes won't split and cause too much damage inside. Fingers crossed its just the exposed mains pipes that are causing the problem... Probably hopeful thinking given that the water butt has 3" of ice on the surface and tonight it's supposed to drop to -5C.
Despite the cold the builders are still cracking into the work. They are certainly feeling the cold with the wind it was equivalent to around -6 centigrade on site today.

We have a fresh load of seasoned wood delivered and stacked ready for our return to the caravan. More excitingly we are taking delivery of a sub-compact tractor on Monday, we'll be able to rotovate growing beds in the spring, carry loads into the field and cut grass. The tractor is significant as it represents the start of our activities in the field.

| Our tractor will look a bit like this but it will have big agricultural tyres, a sub-woofer and blue organic neon lights. A drinks holder comes as standard but unfortunately Stella Artois doesn't. |
