Call in the troops!

And so we did. With a super human contribution from Matt Francis and some clever use of dishwashing liquid we got those suckers up where they needed to be.

until we had a version of the statue of liberty.

I then called in a local carpenter to do the tricky stuff, and in no time we had the framing completed. Temporary roof back on the bathroom area as the rains have decided to hang around a lot more than I would like. Still, nearly there.

All that remained now was to bring the walls right up to the top of the battens, for a strong and fireproof seal. For this difficult task I called on the specialist talents of one Lynn MacLennan, who I must admit made the difficult job look easy.



Michelle took on the fun job of fitting bricks into the odd shaped corner bits....
.......and I ate a muffin.
