This log was started as a journal of our garden and music activities. We have our garden in southern Kyushu, where the winters are mild and good for growing brassicas, and the summers hot and humid, especially following the rainy season.
In the garden, i have built a wood-burning pizza oven, photo on the left of the oven near the end of construction and beginning to be used, where I cook pizza, bake breads, croissant, cakes, and generally cook everything an anything possible in an oven. The oven was a lot of work and time to build, but it is paying for itself now through reduced gas bills and also provides pizzas and breads simply unattainable by means of an ordinary gas or electric oven. A photo of the oven is attached, i will place some photos of the garden as and when i can.
We also organise occasional house concerts, featuring improvised and jazz music, and soon some classical musics. The money we raise from tickets is given to the musicians, and we have the pleasure of the music and their company, usually for some days.
There are three of us in Braeside Cottage, Hannah our child, my wife and myself.
