@PhilDAS Thank you very much sir, island life does take a little getting used to, but becomes the norm pretty quickly. And it makes me realise just how rushed everything felt before. To be honest, we’re closer to most services here than a lot of rural spots but it’s the quiet that does it!
@almac68 Ahh, I’ll need to have a look into that, thanks for clearing that up! Think it’s maybe too dense to get the insect problem but I’ll need to double check!
@johnnettles2 that’s really nice to hear, thank you! I reckon it’s only right for me to do that though. Like I’ve said before it can feel pretty isolating up here so it means a lot having people check in and see how things are coming along ☺️
The joiner was back yesterday to do a bit of cladding and speak to the sparky who had brought across our solar panels. The wind is forecast to be low enough on Monday that the two joiners (who seem to also specialise in roofing, climbing, engineering, maths, problem solving and staying positive with challenges, as well as now renewables..) will be able to fit them and the rails to the roof. Hoping Monday works out as one of them is away to one of the other islands for a week on Tuesday!
