Much to Simon's joy the roof is finally finished! All the slates are on and the chimneys have been rough casted and painted. The small roof on the utility room hasn't been done yet as the block work needs to be completed on the gable end before this can be done. It's been really hard work for Simon doing all of the labouring himself and laying the slates (about 5000 in total!) but he's happy with the end result.
He's now onto the block work and after just a couple of days he's already laid quite a lot as you can see from the picture. I've been trying to help by stacking his blocks out for him-finally something that I can help with although they are very heavy after a while!
