It was back to the ponies at Picking Gill. Six of us, Andy, Rob, Duncan, Rod, Barry and Graham took another section down, up to the neighbouring field fence boundary. Barry spent most of the morning mining stone and the early afternoon recreating the cord fencing to keep the ponies away. They were very persistent and took a very keen interest in us and the wall. By mid afternoon they had moved on but were a real pest for quite some while. Whilst the new section had nearly been rebuilt, Barry, with the help of others, finally managed to do some real walling completing the topping out on last week's section. This week's nature comment - tiny frogs in the undergrowth 1-2cm long. Find of the week half a dozen squashed cans of John Smith's Extra Smooth dated 30 June 2011, buried in the wall. Hopefully the drinkers have since learned the error of their ways and moved on to something more palatable.
