    :dh: Stupid Pheasant.. Now those are real windows Pal. A satisfying job I should think.. :dh: We had a pidgeon fly into the window last week.. Didn't break but the bird left a dusty imprint on the window... It fly off OK....
    :thmb: Oh you can't beat the Cotswolds at this time of year in the mornings for their looks can you Pal.. I love it when the mist makes your photos spooky too...
    :thmb: Back to it then Pal..

    Down Ampney,Wiltshire. Once the Co-OP's main milk producing area...now redundant along with very many derelect farms.
    We have converted this wagon shed into a teaching room for school kids. They are taught about the land and crops then cook their midday meal.
    The first shot is the temp glazing and second the Double glazed units in situ...eventually,after routing out the timber rebates because the units were too big!:dh:....Lesson 1...Don't ask an apprentice joiner to make templates for glass!:hehe:

    As usual my friend you are working in and on exceptional premises.

    What happened to that lovely wood house that the lady was going to move into that you were working on back in August ? I'd love that ...

    I popped in to fit some bathroom items last week and she may be able to move quite soon now.
    We are friends with her because my son did work experience on her woodland Estate and I get to taste proper coffee when I visit:gnthb:

    Kath,the red objects are metal crates filled with materials we need to reroof the house,they were transported up through the field by JCB because there is no access from the drive. I have reglazed the new windows and struggled with my loaded van to get up the steep drive!
    It's a long haul up there but it certainly is a beautiful spot:)
