Packing up

We were not able to start renovating the pool again until about 11am, as we’d had a little bit of rain first thing. By noon though we were making some good progress.

We had found our rhythm. I would mix up the chaux, whilst Brian smoothed our last piece of work, then we both would work together plastering it on and shaping the edge.

We’ve learnt not to let it dry too quickly, as that can cause it to crack, hence why we are covering it with some old packing paper.

We didn’t quite make it to the other end, as realised we need another bag of chaux, but also, by the end of day 3, we were definitely feeling it.
