Baled Out - Friday afternoon

Friday 20 December 2013

We carried on after lunch (this time I had made chicken and noodle soup - soups are great for December building sites). 

 Kicking those bales into position

 Three o'clock, and only a few spaces left to stuff

 Pete and Rowan cutting a bale in half lengthways to fit an awkward gap - this was surprisingly successful, maybe because of the density of our bales.
 
 Dave having a moment of deep thought - or total exhaustion, perhaps.

 Rowan getting the last few in.  He just put a 30kilo bale on his back and walked up the ladder.  I'm on the inside, in the studio, helping haul into position before tying off.

 Repeating the bale kicking manoeuvre on the other gable end.
 
 End of Day Two - all bales in position.  A few lintel gaps still to stuff, but the main job is done.  Hurrah!  Still days away from a lazy day with our feet up, but at least it's another milestone reached.
