Gumboots in the lounge
We finally got the log burner sparked up, and it really makes the place start to feel like a home! 70km/h winds and rain outside proved to be good conditions for testing the waterproof-ness of the roof, with a couple of little leaks becoming apparent (on the bright side, this is the right time to find these things out, before we start installing insulation and drywall). The house feels absolutely rock-solid in those windy conditions, as it should. Most of the internal framing is now done. Most of the wool insulation is piled up in what will be the bunkroom, so the kids spent probably a couple of hours in there bouncing up and down like in a big foam pit at a kids activity centre!

According to the Porters website, their anemometer broke after recording 220km/h winds today, so it would seem to have been relatively sheltered in the village!
