So how long 'till your snazzy new kitchen is ready for hot spaghetti action?
Cool to read you feel so well-received at work @komemiute! You sure do deserve a break after the last couple years.
In other news, I bid on and bought a huge amount of flagstones and diverse rocks of about 15-30 kilo’s on the dutch equivalent of craigslist, marktplaats.nl (marketplace). Sweet, sweet price of just under 200euros. Hauled 'em all in. Took two hauls. I reckon I can triple or quadruple (or maybe even more!) their value by using them in projects. Hard work in the early spring sun, and what a haul!
Now you think, ‘eh, they just rocks.’, and you’d be right. They are. In certain parts of the world, you pick them up off your field or a nearby river bed and they’re just so much earth in a rather un-usefull shape. But not in .nl! All we have naturally is mud, clay and some sand. But we do like these rocks to liven up the yards. You can build pretty walls and pathways with them. And that’s what I do These are very nice materials to have in store for when the need arises.
In the pic we’re about 1/3rd through loading the first haul. One of the slabs of red flagstone is 60 by 120 cm! Huge fokker!
