Long day?

A lovely sunny day at Fogfield! Barry, Rod and I made our way (at intervals of 5 minutes) down to the wall under clear blue skys. The grass was verdant, the stone honey coloured under the suns glare and Darley beck murmured gently as we worked away. 

Was it a nice day? 

Ey it were alright.

Liz and Clive (and four legged companions) came to, respectively, check our covid distancing, and our walling progress. I'm not sure we passed either inspection, but we haven't had any report cards yet. 

The stile is finished and functional, and the main wall is not far from it's final height, thanks to the sterling work by Barry and Rod nether of whom seemed to want to leave. We walled till nearly 5 o'clock and I think they would both be still there had I not asked them if it might be time to go home.
