I had a nice few weeks up at Tombreck helping again with the renovations of the South Byre and looking after the farm generally for a few days while Sue and Tober had a break. I really enjoyed the physical work of helping Ewan to put up the roof and its got me very interested in doing more eco-building.
That's fellow volunteer Andy from Australia doing a bit of stone work. His last job was working in a nickel mine...
Sue nicking one of Millie's carrots...
Duck house moving time; this is the house I made for them last winter, its earthquake proof construction means that it needs four people to lift it.
Lots of opportunities for moody shots of misty trees...
...and moody shots of misty trees and mountains.
Back down South for a few days to see ZZ TOP with my great friend Stone from as long as I can remember - they just get better and better, Boogie on Mr Billy!
The roof ready for its sarking boards. We had a lot of rain though! Some days we just gave up and packed up, others we kept on working keeping sheltered as much as we could.

It's snowing today - not as bad as elsewhere in the UK, but enough to make it pretty. Have a good Christmas and hopefully see you in the new year
Wendy and Willy
