Well folks. It’s been a while since I blogged so I hope I can fill you in on our progress to get this hostel off the ground.
We have had some truly wonderful volunteers stay with us from the beginning of the year and all are dearly missed by us. We have on the flip side eight new volunteers booked in so things will start moving again.
A neighbouring barn has been repaired so progress is being made to make everything 100% safe and pointing has begun around the Schoolhouse itself.
Drew built single handedly one tyre wall. Our superman! We will continue with the huge wall and the two other small walls in the garden this summer.
Our new sceptic tank will soon be installed so last years tyre wall volunteers work will be put to the test.
Hemp has been sourced and is ready for collection so the hall shall be plastered soon and our stonemason will be recycling all the old flagstones we salvaged from the Schoolhouse and completing our internal courtyard. I can’t wait.
The Tinahely Walking Festival was a huge success and will be on 1st May, 2011 so we will hopefully have everything ready for that date and the Tinahely Agricultural Fair is coming up quickly on August Bank Holiday Weekend.
Its full steam ahead for us..and thanks for keeping track of us on our blog and facebook.
