Spring is in the air and Journalists - Dakar - Joernaliste en Lente

Kameraman, Aurelie Fontaine en Sebastiaan Biehl
Die jaar soos in ander jare kom daar gewoonlik 'n paar joernaliste ons besoek. Die keer was dit twee Franse joernaliste van Dakar in Senegal.

Wat julle ook hier kan sien is ons pragtige lente blomme en ons nuwe buite gordyne/blindings.

Aardskip groete
Cameraman, Aurelie Fontaine and Sebastiaan Biehl

The year as in other years, a few journalists usually visit us. This time it was two French journalists from Dakar in Senegal.

What you can see here are our beautiful spring flowers and our new outside-curtains / blinds.

Gang plaveisel en oes - Indoor pavement and harvest - Aug 2018


Hier sien julle die gang gemaak van skalie-klip in plaas van leiklip. Omdat skalieklip nie so verhard is as leiklip nie verbrokkel dit as dit in aanraking kom met water. Om die rede het ons elke klip eers vernis voor ons dit geplaas het. Die gang lyk soos 'n tuinpaadjie en komplimenteer die plantebak baie.

Julle kan sien dat ons weer baie spinasie en tamaties oes die jaar. Van een tamatie plant het ons al sestig tamaties geoes en die einde is nog nie insig. Ook het ons 'n bietjie sukses gehad met soetrissie, brokolie en botterskorsies.

Aardskip groete
Here you see the indoor passage of shale-stone instead of slate. Because shale is not as hardened as slate it break when it comes into contact with water. For that reason, we first varnish each stone before we used it. The corridor looks like a garden path and complements the planter.

You can see that we have a lot of spinach and tomatoes harvest this year. From one tomato plant we have already harvested sixty tomatoes and the end is not yet insightful. We also had some success with sweet pepper, broccoli and butternuts.

Ludwig en Retha Everson

Lampshade made with brick-force - Lampskerm gemaak met herwinde materiaal. - Feb 2018


Hier sien julle ons tweede lampskerm gemaak van herwinde materiaal. Die raamwerk is gemaak van steenwapening. Verder is daar dan kristalle aan gehang.

Ook kan julle meeste van ons skilderye sien, van my ma, ander bekende Oraniers en Suid-Afrikaners.

Aardskip groete
Here you can see our second lampshade made of recycled material. The framework is made of brick-force. Then we used crystals to make it beautiful.

You can also see most of our paintings, from my mother, other well-known Oranians and South Africans.

In February we found someone who could complete our carport. He made the steel construction and the roof and gutters.

Manie Jackson

Vlnr. Angel, Manie, Ludwig en Retha

Ek en Manie Jackson het ‘n Twitter misverstand gehad. Toe kom maak hy ‘n draai by die Aardskip om te verduidelik dat hy hou van Orania.

Manie: “Baie lekkerder as Twitter. Insiggewend!”

Manie Jackson and I had a Twitter misunderstanding. Then he came to the Aardskip to explain that he really likes Orania.

Manie: "Much better than Twitter. Insightful!"

Outbuildings
Buitegeboue


Die jaar het ons begin om die motorhuis afdak aan te pak. Ongelukkig het ons teen spoed gehad met ons eerste kontrakteur. Die tweede kontrakteur Rico het tot dakhoogte gekom. Ongelukkig het hy van sy werkers verloor en staan die projek stil.

In die fotos sien julle Rico en Eben.

Aardskip groete
During this year we started the garage. Unfortunately, we had some trouble with our first contractor. The second contractor Rico manage to build to roof height. Unfortunately, he lost one of his workers and had toe stop.


Here you can see a picture that Rico building himself. In the second photo you see Eben and Rico.
