Ecofarmer

re-settled in Hungary from Rochdale, Lancs, England, and into a little village, doing a bit of greenish farming hoping for a quiet life... but stuff just happens...

heat


yes, had to acclimatise again into 35C+, bottling and freezing stuff - lots of tomatoes and sweetcorns, and now grape-juice to make. Otherwise - we've been to Pecs only once since back - nice afternoon made a bit dark as facing to Szechenyi square from the Pecsi Sör terrace, we had to witness a fascist crowd mascarading as the animal defence league... well, at least it wasn't very well attended - 50/60 people and hopefully some of those were not quite aware what they were dragged into... Also we had a nice day in Kaposvar, attending a concert as part of the classical music festival there. We managed to activate and use out GPS - which is good omen for our not-so-far-off drive to Greece. We are in the middle of our annual - 12th - Festival of Light, we had a good little show by two members of the Pecs National Theatre, and a nice communal meal. We chickened out most of todays competitions (too hot, and humid) and sadly, will miss out on the strudels prepared by about a dozen of the elderly womenfolk, I tried to video, sorry, for some reason, upside down.
