The roof where the water running down the wall if you got any of the roofing sheets of the same profile cut a six inch piece off the width slide it underneath the original roof then drill and rivet them together to extend it .The water will run further out a way from wall there for dry out 👍👍have fun love what you’re doing up there

I’m only partway through, but honestly, if anyone ever needed to expand the house, really the only place to do it is on the wooden side. So I wouldn’t put a stone building there. Your other option is to raise the roof and put another story up there.

Scot Katie’s idea is a good one, but seriously though because of the vagaries of the weather a guttering and down pipe I would think is important

@RobBrown-qr6sb Месяц назад

Years ago ( the 70s I think ) I guy called Phil Drabble did a TV series about his work on a small farm, he’d bought on retirement , that he was turning into a nature reserve - he struggled with Bracken too and , I seem to recall, said that if you cut bracken 3x in 2 years it would go a long way toward eradicating it - I thing he brought in a trio of piglets after the cutting ( done with horsepower I think) to finish it off ….. and provide breakfast!🤷. Please forgive any slight inaccuracy- I am remembering a program from 50 years ago!

@TheScottishIsle Месяц назад

I know Soay sheep also eat bracken, as well as pigs. Both would make a good go at it, although they'd need a sturdy yet moveable fence... Kx

Scott, Katie, may I congratulate you both. Clearly, the hours you've both invested in practising with your new camera are reaping the rewards. The new material is stunning in its clarity and razor sharp definition. In particular, the close-up work reveals a whole new world of life beyond the (also impressive) landscape and vista shots. You've both clearly got your eye in (as the saying goes). Fab work!

Keeping warm and dry is the more important for you both and the animals. I love the stone lean to sounds very smart and extending the roof even better ❣️Good luck on the chimneys I’m sure they will turn out great.

What a blessing two people with the open mind to do hard work worth doing. Blessings

@rosschamberlain1823 Месяц назад

Actually, selling the soil you dig up from around the footings is a great idea. Sell it as authentic Scottish Jacobite soil. Randomly throw in some artefacts from the period, along with the occasional finger bone from a lab skeleton. Add a disclaimer that the seller is not responsible for buyers popcorning round the kitchen upon delivery.

For the wooden wall with the short tin roof, I would suggest removing all the tin and replace with longer tin to extend beyond the wooden wall. However, I've got to say in an ideal world, you'd replace the wooden wall with something more robust. Or follow Terry Bulls suggestion.

When you prepared the Scottish Eggs it took me back to my youth when my Great Gran would make them with pork sausage and place them in my Fathers and Uncles lunch boxes. Never understood what they were until I saw your video in a recent episode.
