Take one hard working husband, a chainsaw and a pile of foam panels - what do you get?

A lot of white foam snow, and a pile of insulation for the roof!

Even the boss gets her hands dirty - sanding and cleaning the inside walls in preparation for painting.

Shop Building Update

Firstly we would like to apologise that the shop has not been updated for the past few weeks. We have an issue with the SF program and it wont allow us to update the shop. The file has been sent off to the computer whizzes at SF and once they have it repaired the shop will be updated. This doesnt affect any orders you wish to place, as the shop is still fully functional, we just can't put any new stuff in there yet...

Well the shop is progressing again now that seeding is finished, whilst we wait for the rain and the weeds to grow...

more photos ----

All the shop fittings packed up and stored in the shearing shed
