Another day in paradise, and a day closer to getting stage one of our Earthstead dream completed. Wwoofer Sylvia from Germany is a God send, and by her own admition has tile fever. She is an amazingly talented builder, and today has taken on the task of designing a snake mosaic for the recess for the waste water from the roof. A chain "downpipe" will bring the water from the roof into this recess.
The other big arrival at Earthstead has been the Aracarna rooster, on loan from our friend George. Ali let him out of the box George had packed him in, and as soon as the girls laid eyes on him, they went into a kind of panic, clucking and squarking and hiding in the fig tree. They were still unsettled at nightfall, everytime he came near them they cried out so loudly, we could hear them from the house! lets hope things have settled in the barnyard tomorrow!
