Status week 7

February 15, 2006

We received some new information regarding the connection of water and electricity.

Electricity: There’s now a red peg visible on our plot. The red peg is marking where the electricity pole goes. The electricity company will drop off the cable for Hughie to install between the pole and our house at the end of this month.”

Water: The water connection will be the actual pipe running to our plot and a standpipe needed for building water. This pipe will be removed again once the building has been completed. Jon will discuss with James about the precise position of the standpipe.

Furthermore we decided to fence off the plot where it runs along the B884. The fence will run from the plot at Skinidin 17 to the plot at 15 Skinidin and will fall back a bit where the access road is. The access road will be fitted with a fence. We’re still thinking about installing a cattle grid, although this has no priority yet. The cattle grid should keep unwanted wandering sheep out of the cultivated part of the garden.
