  • I would play the piano more, read all the science fiction (Azimov, Herbert, HG Wells, Orwell, Bradbury, AC Clarke, UK Le Guin…), play Boardgames & Magic the Gathering with my friends, probably start making content for youtube or twitch, make pastry everyday, do gardening and building projects around the house…

    The question is, do I have any budget to do all that, or are my basic needs covered but I can’t choose where to live, what I eat etc?

    Honestly, I don’t find any satisfaction in work because I love doing so many things and would rather do one of them for money.


  • Ding Ding Ding! :) Wine racks, shelves with crates for flower bulbs, potatoes and other root vegetables… Which will mean we have to secure the entry, our (lovely) elderly neighbor has already mentioned coming over at night for a drink ^^

    But it will probably serve as a tool shed for the coming year until we have the rest of the garden levelled and laid out, it’s the first of many projects, we will come back to it for the aesthetics (lime render, floor tiling, door, outside cladding…).






  • It all began as a “quick and easy project to learn the ropes before making the bigger construction elements” (retaining wall, stair, maybe pool even), and then we started looking at hobbit houses, fancying nicer materials, adding an alcove… It now feels like it will be the most complicated thing in the whole garden ^^’

    Were you planning to bury a life-size skeleton wearing a construction worker’s outfit nearby?

    i wasn’t… until i read your suggestion! :D
