crazy week / weekend is over !
after last week, working on the proposal, preparing for ncnrc,gandalf etc, the weekend brought driving around in a rented car, (05 ford focus Lx) nice car. The car gave great freedom!
On Saturday we scrubbed the yards and cut the shrubs etc around the guest house.. O did a great job painting the place. After dinner we went to the bog, took a few hours but I really enjoyed the bog – I use to (not hate) dislike the bog for some reason, now I find it quite enjoyable. Developed the R.TTT (Ronan Turf Turning Technique) which proved to a great success, only downside it does strain thighs,calf muscles etc.
Sunday brought driving around in a ford 4600 tractor! a bit different from the other ford I was driving! – we cut the silage and had it wrapped on Sunday. The bales were ‘double chopped’ which means more grass goes into the bale. The tractor was not up to the load this year… the amount of times I was driving on two wheels wasn’t funny.
Monday was working on presentation and playing soccer for 2 hours. my groin strain is gettin’ better!!:)
Tuesday / Wednesday was up at Maynooth for a productive meeting. We all stayed at the Barberstown Castle, good food, good accommodation.
anyway.. back to work…
