Roof is on and it’s starting to look like the pictures	Are we holding the whole thing together with sticky tape?	Wes is making sure that everyone knows he has arrived

Lunch on the run	Brick work is still being done	View from the front of the site

Shane starting the random stone wall	David putting the lining on the roof – you can tell it’s David by the socks!	The Fagus, Prunus and Birch from Hilliers are delivered…

… and Wes gets to have some fun	…but still needs some help!	I think I can

Can’t believe Wes has given the landscaper a pair of secateurs	Didn’t last long!	Shane still going on the stone, only now it’s raining

Someone said they look like twins!	Just need to move some of those trees into the garden now	Percy’s not happy with Shane’s progress so is giving him a hand.

Timmy filing his nails	The birch are fantastic!
