Space!

 Bruce was here for a bit yesterday and today and has made a sort of shutter to support the frame where it joins the wall. When it's dry it can be bolted onto a flat surface instead of a bumpy old stone work!.

It was dry enough, between showers, to give the chooks a good clean out and get some strimming done. The lawnmower is still in for repair.

Jill and Bruce also  moved stuff around to clear out the byre so there is enough room to cut the frame. 

Jill has tried to get the stones out from the step area in the blue byre where they gad been holding the concrete shutters in. They were in too well and took some busting out, but Bruce will put a base in tomorrow when he adds the the frame shutters. That will be another job ticked off.

 Jill's idea for the floor edging upstairs worked. So we'll in fact we will use it at the bottom of the stairs too.

The good news is  the rubber tape at the front door seems to work.

Jill popped to Lerwick to get some builders 

sand and had a quick lunch while there. This nice shag flew in just as the panini disappeared!
