February Filldyke - not!

Slightly less cold today and I enjoyed my morning fast walk by the river. However they say the weather is going to get colder at the weekend and we are in for an icy visit from Boreas himself! But still very dry, the water low and no prospect of anything but dry weather here, apart from a bit of snow on Sunday - February is not living up to the "Filldyke name"


Penny is overseeing some major work in the garden at the moment – this involves more steps, retaining walls and renewing paving and old damaged bricks – they have been here well over a month now but the end is in site. She is also getting involved in a new textile Art project – you can read all about this on her Blog - http://pennyburnfield.blogspot.com



I recently went down to the Golden Buddha Centre at Zeal Cottage, Dartmoor - we have now adapted the garage to two self contained rooms with their own shower and loo pods, and their own entrances – very nice little Buddhist cells (Zeals) suitable for the Dalai Lama when he comes to stay. We do a regular meditation sessions, retreats etc – see http://www.goldenbuddha.org
