    "We're not scaffolders, we're not builders..." you do a brilliant job regardless and everything is done with the love of the village. I hope the weather is good for you during the autumn so the work can progress. I take it you want to put a new roof on at some time.

    Yip, you are hilarious, loved your comment that 'as you get older you lose your bottle' I'm still giggling, I don't think I've every heard that saying before. You are both very brave to be up so high on that scaffolding, I think you have earned your 'monkey' climbing certificates.

    Hello my lovelies. ❤Good to see progress and plans as they develop. I`m not at all enthusiastic about heights. A kitchen chair or a 2-step kitchen ladder makes me dizzy. 😂But great view! I watch with one eye closed, my heart in my throat and folded hands... 🙏
    Take care of yourselves and good luck with this part of the restoration. ☘

    For 2 lovely chaps who aren’t builders or scaffolder‘s you are both doing an amazing job. I know from tv shows I’ve watched on UK telly there are government grants you can apply for when restoring buildings. Do they have the same in France?

    I can’t go up one step on a ladder to change a lightbulb!! My 82 year old husband just climbed through a very small window on our second floor, tied himself to a chimney and lowered himself down to mend a dormer roof that had been cocked up by the only time we have ever employed a roofer!!!!
