I'm busy sorting out the rest of the garden first though, which may take me a year or two.

It doesn't seem to stop me starting things in a fit of wild enthusiasm but I'm slowly gaining a better understanding of my limits and what I can realistically attempt without messing up or getting overwhelmed.

I think a lot of us go quite slowly, I just don't think that art is a quick process. It needs a lot of thinking time. And I'm just thinking long term with the chickens - the eggs could be trade goods in the event of global meltdown! Although I do also have a teenage boy in the house who gets through quite a few eggs. I've also been eating more of them lately (poached eggs on toast = breakfast heaven!)
