More wall stories

Last week there was a meeting which ended up with us being told that we wouldn't be able to build a wall around our own land despite having all the correct paperwork! Fortunately Glyn and Jane had already been to see someone who was higher than the person who was trying to stop us and he had said that everything was in order and we could build! He did ask us to wait for an extra day for one final meeting with the original person though! During the waiting day it was decided that although we couldn't build we could begin to clear the land. This started on Monday afternoon and loads of staff and even some nursery kids who had gone home came and helped! They were very cute!!

Yesterday we were still waiting for things to be finally resolved so nothing happened, except that we told the people who have been trying to stop us that they are having no money and that we would begin building the next day.

This morning the building all started. No one knew if it would be peaceful or end up with a big fight for the land. Fortunately God was looking after us and we had no trouble at all!

The wall surrounding the new plot will hopefully be completely finished by Friday and then the land will be secure.

Building Walls

I never thought that building walls could be so interesting but when people are trying to steal land from you it becomes very exciting!

Some people are trying to claim our land as their own so that they can sell it and make lots of money!

We have started to build a wall around the perimeter to stop them from building but they threatened to stone the builders so Glyn went out and started digging the foundations himself. This caused a lot of shouting so Jane went out and threatened to call in Securicor! They said "Go on then!" so Jane went back and called them in! They ran away quickly after that!
