Getting there

 It's amazing that just putting paint on makes it look that bit more complete. Patrick put a layer of gloss on the door frame today


Jill carried on with the stairs - sanding  sitting down. Yay! They are coming on. Putting 3 coats on the treads as we go to protect the work. Another coat will go on later.


Michael finished repairs to the joists and started on the worst lintel.  Stones coming down and will be replaced over new lintels.




 Jill also found a new stash of rope buried in the garden to dig up.

We needed a few bits so Jill popped to Bjxter shop. The weather picked up so a diversion  was called for. A bew area including Twatt, Clousta and Noonbrough . Very pretty.






Troll rock was an interesting find and someone myst have taken a while getting this ball to the top.
