Returning

We’d spent the last two weeks getting some major jobs done with our Workaway guests, and now it was time to complete the work we had volunteered for at our friends house.

The last job on their list was to seal the gaps in the delivery door of the barn. This required us to create some batons that would cover the holes, and then seal them to prevent the rain from getting in.

Brian measured and cut the batons, then I helped out by sanding them so they were smooth and shed water easily.

It was then just a case of Brian fixing them in place solidly and then filling the sides. I took over that role for a while to give Brian a rest, but for some reason it took three of us!

We had a wonderful day together finishing off, Valerie will paint the batons once the filler has dried in the next couple of days. We are looking forward to returning and seeing the finished doors, for now though we were happy to enjoy a little apéro together admiring all our hard work, before tucking into a delicious dinner cooked by Val & JM.
