More...I still haven't put up the last sheet on the south roof.
More...I've been holding off doing an update until I'd finished the south roof sheeting but it's been a while and, though I'm close, that doesn't look like happening for a little while so…
More...After some messing around and bad luck exacerbated by Olympic-class dithering and procrastination on my part, I've bought a little car to replace my van.
More...Seals are quite common around here but they normally keep themselves to themselves. There are a lot to be seen from the ferry to Orkney and in places like that and occasionally the odd one is seen a lot closer but it was still a surprise to see a bunch of them on a little island in the Thurso river quite close to passers by.
More...I'm still van & carless and the weather's been very mixed so there's not been a lot of progress on the roof consequently I haven't got round to taking photos recently. Here's the south roof on August 13th.
More...Since the beginning of August I've been feeling tired and depressed even more of the time than usual. Particularly, I've been continuously feeling sleep deprived and irritable much like being jet lagged. As a result, for the last fortnight I've been experimenting with biphasic sleep; that is, splitting my night's sleep into two segments, getting up for an hour or a bit more in between.
More...The replacement batch of roof sheets were delivered on Friday the 24th of June (I assume). I've put six of them up since. I've also done a bit inside the house but that's better in a separate post.
More...As previously noted while waiting for weather and roof sheets I've been doing the loft over the main bedroom.
