East Wall Bale Raising - pt 3

Saturday 1 Nov 2014, after lunch

 Vitally important kitchen support team - Liz and Sue.  Sue got so muddy at the last bale raising that she refused to do any building this time, but took over management of the kitchen, for which we were really grateful

 Lin and Paris somehow making tea for eighteen people after lunch

 A moment of triumph - a successful 3 way split - making little filler bales for the tight spots under the eaves

 Dave's brother Pete sawing back a protruding bale

 Dave and Pete looking like those characters from Sesame Street!  
Only a tiny area left to fill at the apex.

 Four o'clock - all the bales in, time for a group photo of everyone still around.  Some of the early arrivals had left before this.  From left: Tina, Adi, Alan, Liz, Lin, Rowan, Dave, Paris, Robbie, me, Pete, Lucy, Sue.  Brilliant team!

 Rather later, as the barbeque gets going, a pic of the old and new bale walls and where they join

 Rowan and Paris had made lemon tart for dessert, complete with little house stencils!

Very much later, just us, Rowan and Paris left, all wrapped up against the evening chill
