The scaffolding is down!!

At last!! We can now see what the barn looks like without the scaffolding that was hiding it for the last couple years. Now it is time to hang rain gutters, and windows, a door and repoint. Don't hold your breath...We still have to work so we can get the ££ to make the improvements! But first, we have to stop the mice from chewing on the Tyvek from underneath the slates!

A minor distraction...

A new addition to our family, Siarli, took a while to settle in the Welsh mountains, as he originates from the East Anglian flat lands. A touch of separation anxiety was evident when we were working on the peak of the roof... he did not like being left on the ground! Hence his new found climbing skills came to the fore!

Sadly, our original builder's helper, Haf, succumbed to a nasty cancer... he has been buried in his beloved mountains not far from his favourite building site. What fond memories we are left with!
