Surprise Pond

If you put a water wheel in it, it can be a leat.

Then use the water wheel to power a generator, to power a pump. To pump water to make the wheel turn.

And use the surplus to power a mill and grind her own flour

No, add another wheel to power a mill, to grind wheat into flour.

Use another wheel to turn a generator, to power a bakery.

But, then you need to add..........

Glad the wife loves it. Be a shame to go to all that effort to be treated to 'oh, that wasn't what I had in mind'.

I didn't treat my wife to a suprise pond.

But, as where we live is flooding currently we got a suprise pond. Unfortunately it's in the back shed.

Wife's not impressed.

Not the end of the world. Good to know where the water table sits.

Might have to revaluate floor levels however.
