Hillend

The day started pretty unpromisingly, the journey to site peppered some proper downpours, but apart from a soggy first hour the rain stayed away. The sun came out accompanied by a fine gusty wind which late in the day blew our tea and biscuit tray clean orf the wall. 
Conditions underfoot were still less than ideal as Catriona, Duncan, Rod and Graham slithered in the mud and did a valiant job of clearing and partly rebuilding the last section of wall. Justin, meanwhile, cleared the tumbled section of wall that had fallen down to the pathway, then helped me put flat toppers on the completed section of wall.
We left in dribs and drabs and had all left by 4 o'clock.

The photo's are of the end of the day, unfortunately  my phone had a giddy half hour; when it thought it was 3 AM some time last century, and failed to save the photos I'd taken in the morning; presumably because smart phones didn't exist back then and the photos were therefore an anachronism.
