Tuesday 7th March

A There is a lot of old rusted machinery dotted about the farm, lying where it stopped working, growing a skirt of grass around its edges where the mower can’t get to. Some of it you can not guess what its use once was, other bits are fairly obvious, I find it all rather intriguing though. With 2000 acres of land I suppose there is no reason to get rid of it. I asked Matt about the old grader, a huge machine, stripped of its panels so that its rusted skeleton and engine made it look like some sort of Mad Max machine, sitting behind the fence in a field. He said that it had just arrived there the other day, since we have been here. It looks like it has been there for 50 years, although there was no grass skirt. Apparently it used to belong to the Bowkers and was residing at the farm next door, so the bloke from next door had dragged it over, did not tell Matt it was coming, it just appeared. Only in the country eh? Imagine something that big, long forgotten from your past, appearing in your front yard in suburbia? The project I am currently working on is a sort of white and black spotted Loch Ness Cow Monster that will be swimming in the water tank, it has Lost It’s Whey. It is coming along very well and when we finally work out how to get photos onto this blog I will put some up. Cam Lee put the others up for me, am going to call him and ask him the secret.
