Let us pray

The first of the windows are now in and I'm pretty happy with the result even if the bothy is starting to resemble a chapel, prayers for good weather are in order (strong backs too)

Bend and lift

This week has seen with the help of some decent weather progress made on the gate posts and flooring.The cables for the floor mounted electric motors have been laid and the incredibly heavy (as my back will testify) and dense Welsh blue pennant stone laid onto a grano bed. Once the granite setts are laid out we can fix the motors into the ground and finally see some progress on the next sections of the pillars...happy days!

Bend and lift

A quarter of a ton block to lift into place and those edges are rather fragile.....you just have to love manual labour, isn't there an app that can do this?
