Unfortunately my old injured elbow started to remind me about all bikecrashes i´ve managed to survive during the years, can´t do much at the moment, buying some plants, at least something....

Started to build a small pond inside

Bought this furniture today, about 100 years old, guess that it looks nice when we finish the floor with bricks

Very nice. Something that contrasts against the red bricks on the floors will work quite nicely.

Today we got home the jewel to the greenhouse. Renovated by a professional.
The Stove cost 47 SEK (5 € or 7$ ) in 1913, I have paid a little bit more

Husqvarna Mikado nr 82
There are a total of 8 Mikado stoves, beautifully ornamented with flowers, the smallest No 79, 84 cm high and No 83 who is 143 cm high. No. 79, 80 and 81 can easily be found, but 82, 82 1 / 2 and 83 are very rare, our 82 is 119 cm high and the furnace can hold 23 liters, heating capacity is 300 m3, the weight is 87 kg

The front with "beard" at the bottom
The Beard is not original, but this is far more beautiful, shaped like the inside of a seashell

The Jewel in the greenhouse on the spot
We are going to put bricks on the floor and then make a platform for the heater, piping will be mounted and go out through the wall at the forefront of the Gothic vaults, a Chimney sweeper will approve the installation at he end.

Wow, wow and more wow!

One thing did surprise me however. I see a downspout that runs right out onto the surface of some stone work. Aren't you worried about a freeze heaving that stone or having the foundation goofed up?

No, not really, its well drained under the stone work, under the walls, about 60 cm, and inside the greenhose we have a heater, that will give us something like 5+ C in the winter.
