It&#8217;s as well that I post one now as this afternoon I started work up there.<\/p>\n<p>You remember that I mentioned the other day that I had to face the walls under the eaves at the front, to keep the bugs and the weather out. At the rear though it&#8217;s not possible to do it like that so I&#8217;ve been facing the walls under the eaves from the inside. And they needed it too &#8211; you can actually see daylight in a couple of places.<\/p>\n<p>So what I&#8217;ve been doing is ramming stones up underneath the insulation on top of the house walls to block up any holes and then infilling with mortar. Some rain and some animals might get under then eaves at the back but at least they won&#8217;t get into the house.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I attached the downpipe for the guttering to the side of the house. I tried the new Hitachi battery-powered SDS drill and it went into the wall like a hot knife into butter. This is going to be some purchase.<\/p>\n<p>And you might be wondering why that was all I did this morning. But most of the morning was spent turning the inside of Caliburn upside down looking for the downpipe fasteners.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/foto2009\/0908020.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/foto2009\/0908020.jpg\" alt=\"kwikstage scaffolding lean-to les guis virlet puy de dome france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>Tomorrow, Terry&#8217;s coming round and we are going to take down most of the scaffolding and fit the plywood sheets onto the roof here. And that will be Terry finished round here (until we start on the barn roof, but I haven&#8217;t mentioned that to him). All that will then remain will be to fit the membrane, the slates, the fascia panels and the guttering, and we&#8217;ll be done!<\/p>\n<p>Then I can get cracking on the inside of the house. I want to be settled in before October.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-1161 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='1161' data-nonce='16ce856f7d' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-1161 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-1161 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='1161' data-nonce='16ce856f7d' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-1161 unlc'>-2<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-1161 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; that I haven&#8217;t posted a pic of the interior of the attic. so here&#8217;s one to put the record straight.
