Busy busy

As well as eating a lot we have been busy doing outdoors stuff in the lovely weather.

It get’s hard to remember everything we have done!

We have been meaning to do some maintenance on the stables for some time and finally NOW was the time.

The wind is almost always blowing from the other end of the stables and was causing water to flow off the roof and down this gable end instead of nicely down the roof and in to the gutters.

Doug has taken it apart and out it back together a bit different. So far it looks to have done the job... but we need some more heavy rain to be sure.

Some of the panels also didn’t hang over the gutter enough so water tended to miss so he has adjusted some of these too. We still have more of them to do though.

I’ve cleaned and refinished the end wall now it should be dryer.

We also emptied the waterbutt that is filled from the gutters. It was quite a job as it was 1/4 full of years and years worth or somewhat rotted leaves. Nice!

Also treated and painted the other end wall.

Soon we will finish the roof and do the front and back too!
