Today is Finn's first day at big boy school, which is more than worth a mention. Here he his - ready to go, then with Eila and Jack on his way to school and finally parking his bike!
At the plot, the slater continues to chuck on the slates. Underestimation of the "loss" of slates that came off the roof as well as the lack of availability of 11 x 7's means that we can't use them on both sides, so we are going to end up with no less than 3 sizes of slate on the roof:
So, last night after work Jaimin headed down to Denny, near Stirling, with Neil's trailer to collect another 2000 slates. A long 8.5 hour round trip but worth it to keep the slater busy and the scaffold in use!
These were unloaded ready for grading at 7.00 this morning. Beautiful clear views made up for heavy work.

- half of the bathroom (up to the top of the roof window) has 16 x 8's
- the rest of the bathroom and the north facing roof will have the 11 x 7's
- the south facing side will have 12 x 8's which Jaimin had to collect yesterday
