He Ain't Heavy...He's Derek

A man like Derek needs something to reflect his image - I've got a lovely Skoda in the forecourt if you're interested?  Still the personalised number plate must be keeping the value on the van...you are long overdue a new work-horse.

Still things have progressed really well whilst I was on holiday with the main roof timber structure now installed it's suddenly starting to look like a normal house now!

I arrived back from holiday just in time to capture the finishing touches to the gable end as Kerry and Paul neatly brought the stone work up to the right height to take the battens, slates and water tables (more about these in a future post).

In the snap here Kerry is making the most of the sunny weather I brought back from Spain after one of the wettest weeks since the project started - quite literally what a difference a week makes.

I couldn't resist this photo opportunity though - "a reet proper action shot!" as Kerry would say.  Sorry Paul but he was showing off and you were not at all impressed - health and safety and all that but the final product is worth all the show-boating regardless....
