We did some building over the holidays. My oldest lad (Sam aged 15)has been doing the cement mixing and carrying blocks to me
The stable and tackroom for my Dottir's pony is taking shape
We have had some stormy nights and are fighting with wet blocks and rain washing the mortar out of the joints, this section has been repointed twice!
We try to cover the fresh building every evening but the polythene just keeps blowing off!
We spent a bit of time tacking DPC to the tops of the roof joists but the high winds have ripped some of it off!
John (aged 11) cannot lift the 6 inch blocks but he does the tidying up of any mortar that drops on the floor, and also picks up my trowel or hammer if I drop them! But, boys being boys.....sometimes there is a bit of larking about!
Don't be too hard on my building! we are fighting with wet blocks, short days, wet nights and high winds...seems like this always happens when I go to build, but then if it wasn't so wet I wouldn't be building! Instead I would be driving my nice warm tractor....working in the fields.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
