Catriona, Rod and I enjoyed the spectacle of a bit of sheep wrangling prior to our walling stint. Ably carried out by Andrews son, who had also very kindly brought us a trailer load of stone. Our morning was spent sorting the stone, which was again of the rather chunky variety.
We took a few off the very small stone used in extremis last week and rebuilt to two courses shy of the top. We might eke out 1 more course with what we have but more stone will be needed to get us to the top.
Some of the safely corralled lambs came to visit us as we left, having escaped their new pastures for old. Our decision to finish early at 2.30 seemed justified as the hail started in earnest just a few minutes journey down the road.
