I do apologise for my complete lack of blogging of late, it's rubbish. Just because my treehouse existence has come to an end doesn't mean this blog is! It is simply because I am on an extremely tight deadline with writing the book so all typing and computer related things are being directed towards that.
I have a good'un for you coming up, a signature dish involving beef, the rump to be exact, and I will post as soon as I get the chance.
Oh how I wish I was still doing this.............
The move back to reality has been interesting, despite being sat a computer 24/7 typing up the treehouse diaries, I have been able to witness some appallingly shit TV, enjoy the freedom of a proper ‘house’, and yet find myself acting like a true eco-zealot, if not I spend the time by the log fire…reminds me of home I suppose (a house without a proper fireplace surely isn’t a home? When and why did people stop having them?!).
“This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”
Winston Churchill.
It was around this time last year that, after a particularly expensive trip to the butchers, I got home and sat on the sofa thinking how ludicrous the price of meat has become. That was when I began thinking how nice it would be if meat was free, then I began thinking about all the other things that “could” be free. A couple of hours later I had decided that come Spring the following year, I would build a treehouse and live off the land for 6 months. I suppose, at the time, it was no more than pure fantasy.
