Its Getting Bigger
Posted: Sunday, 08 October 2006 |
As promised here are the developments to the roof. From a distance it looks like a yellow spaceship has descended on Ward Hill. Hopefully when the tiles are on it ( a nice grey colour) It will blend in with the surroundings and not look like some golden temple on the hillside.

Impressive! Plenty of room for a model railway up there, I'd say.

I'll tell Mr Runestone - that doesn't look very high at all ;-) What time's the next bus to Shapinsay from Sanday?

Amritsar-on-Shapinsay. And only 24 trusses to go....

Model Railway !!! NO WAY..... Might have room for an Observatory to gaze through a telescope at the inhabitants of neighbouring islands. Mr Runestone watch out.

FC: Amritsar? You mean, the gold color? No golden dome in Shapinsay, thank you mucho: hard enough to rustle help (no safety harness provided!) for setting up traditional structures which give some hold. Give the incomers some sense (though why they would come if they had any is a question I am not foolhardy enough to broach, eh?! Kidding!!).

Force 5-6 gales and we are praying in the golden temple that the roof doesn't end up perched ontop of a nearby cow. Spent a restless night listening to the wind whipping up a storm, Joy it was still there in the morning.Foolhardy mjc ( well maybe a little bit )

And then the force 5-6 (fresh breeze/strong wind - not technically a gale until 8) became Storm force 10 and the golden temple still stands in all its glory. Three million cheers!

We moved here in September 05 and have met many good friends. What more could you want from life.
