Sorry, having a “Little Britain” day!

With the land purchase and inflation raging our budget is on a tight leash right now. We would like to call again, on any of you who actually live in Chiang Mai or close to, to find it in your hearts to help out if you can.

Our recent appeal for foodstuffs has had little response so far. We continue to hope:)

If not food stuff then here are a few other things we could do with right now to ensure that we can keep our craft and art exercises going.

Wool …..odds and ends and any colour is fine.

Outdoor Emulsion paint….again part tins and any colour is fine…lets keep these murals going, its great for the children’s skills and confidence building.

Varnish or sealer to protect their great work from the rain.

Quality growing soil…we are always looking at expanding our veg plots…..most garden centres do bags of good soil from just 25 baht.

If you can help with any of these items please get in touch using the contact form below.

blisters2000I do believe I said that the Banana trees were done. Well they weren’t quite. Boon had chopped down the ones we wanted gone but still had to chop out the roots. This he mostly finished today. He really went at it too, refusing to wear the gloves I got him and getting a handful of blisters for his trouble.

Hopefully we have some help tomorrow, from one of the villagers.

Our target is to have most of the grounds clear by next weekend at which point we will order in soil, gravel, etc and start getting the initial layout done.

For all todays photos please visit our photobucket album here.
