Now that summer is nearly here and i am doing more again. I have fired up something i made a long time ago to keep notes of what im doing for others. Its great as you can save drafts aswell, and publish when ready. It is great for those with to many projects on the go at once....

It is very heavy, being made of jigstones its wall are solid concrete, it took about 3 months to cast all the blocks......

Love the ground level shots and the moss. I agree with Tom that is a lovely building, 3 months well spent to my eyes.

I agree with Bazzer, that building could easily be taken for real. Incredible job, lots of patience too I imagine. I like the low angle shots too.

Same around here with bodge and botch. But I was given to understand that originally a Bodger was someone who made legs for chairs and tables on a pole lathe.
