More mud!!

Well the wooden shutting did not work too well, as the mud stuck too tight and came off with the wood in places. It was also not as quick as I thought soooooooooooo

Plan B! to do it all by hand and push it on hard, that way will be longer but at least we will know that we have no gaps etc. We will do maybe 3 coats by hand. I started off, and was then joined by young Ed and then today Sean the sheep came on mud board!

James our "orange" electrician has also been really busy and the plastic trunking that will hold the wires in place is nearly all ran, and small plastic boxes which will hold the plugs and light switches.

First coat by hand, Saturday will see another coat!

A few cracks but that is normal!

Walk in Wardobe getting a light socket!

Almost starting to feel like a house!

Rich is off to the UK tonight to see the kids and grandkids. I have told him I will have it all finished by the time he gets home on Tuesday night! I Wish!!!!!

The next big day will be on Wednesday when we have ALL the straw bales come in one big drop. A massive truck will be stopping on the road and dumping 200 bales, we will have to move fast and get them on the land and then up the hill!

Watch this space it might be slightly epic, but then what isn´t?
