Finally started putting up the facade panels. I've been waiting for this for ages.
Then came the task of epoxying over 1,000 screw holes, sanding them back and giving every panel 2 undercoats and 2 top coats:
Once complete I then cut the vertical slats for the facade from 19mm ply, sanded them and stained them with 2 coats of 'Japanese Black' wood stain:
Both sheds now have their doors and the one outside the kitchen has been lined with insulation as it will house the solar battery and electrical board, as well as my upright freezer (to make more room in the kitchen.)

Currently, I am doing quite a lot of work on the veggie garden as it is time for spring planting. Also there is a lot of weed control to do as well over the 25 acres.
I have just bought a 3.1kWh solar system with lithium-ion battery. Now I have to make the solar array ground mounting terrace before it is delivered and installed in late January!
It has been a record breaking wet November - down this way we are about 10mm short of DOUBLING the previous record rainfall for November. 😮 But it has meant it is greening up nicely:
