A Pretty Good Day

Some days are just good days. Originally the plan was to bottle the pumpkin beer and strain elderflower cordial that i've been making from elderflowers gathered earlier in the year and frozen. I managed to strain the cordial:

Found a couple of bay boletes and a massive cep which i've cut into thin slices and are drying for storage:

But best of all, was the free chicken coop with run that I picked up from freecycle. It was dismantled and collected in the dark, but the picture below shows the exact type of coop. I've wanted chickens for a long time, but initial start up costs have got in the way. We've been saving to hopefully get a coop and chickens next spring, looks like we'll be able to. And the money we've saved can be spent on a bigger run for the chooks.

As for bottling the pumpkin beer, there's always tomorrow
