The Silence is.... / by Rob Sutherland

Well… absolutely silent!

Sorry for the absence this last couple of months - an opportunity arose to get me through the training and pass out to become a Launch Authority for the RNLI in super short order, and not one to shirk from a challenge I decided to go for it. The final pass out test was last week and, apparently, I aced it!

So now I have two more to do in the next 3 weeks. Nothing like a bit of pressure!

Anyway, as a result of all that I have somewhat dropped the ball on work and on keeping my socials and website up to date!

The hut project is slowly edging forward with the next phase of the development due to kick off in a few weeks time as we start to sort out drainage. We are having a water test done this week coming so that a new water supply can be designed too - which is probably going to involve knocking the old stone shed down and replacing it with a much larger timber structure to house the water tanks, filters and control gubbins.

Otherwise I will try and keep up with updating the latest work gallery - I think I will just shelve the last few weeks updates and start afresh this week!

June is looking busy from a “life” perspective and then we break into the Summer Holidays which will be an interesting challenge work wise with managing childcare, but as that is typically a quieter time of year for the housing market I think we should be able to make it work with Angus coming out with me or being looked after by others if I am on a longer trip.

Creativity has been a bit down lately too, and that is something I need to redress as soon as possible!
