Water!





It shouldn't be too long before we can actually let the rain start filling up the water tank(s) now. We're soon to confirm what our water pump will be; the current plan is to use a conventional electic pump when necessary but more often than not, a bike-pedal pump!

There's also a pic of Steve standing exactly where the composting toilet heap will be... "Where he belongs!" says Daisy!

  3. A real posibility for the bike-powered water pump. Instructions are in Spanish, but if anyone wants a translation, get in touch.
