And so...the hat of my house.....

YESTERDAY:
 Unforeseen events continue on the first part of the roof being repaired which was the better part!!!....
1. les panne sablières are renewed either side of the lucarne.
2. le panne faitière had to be built because there wasn't one (back wall plate has had to be built up).
3. the poplar panne intermediare (purlin) was broken and has been replaced with oak!!!!!
4. les chevrons are replaced with new 63 x 75 pine and will be set at a 45 distance to take the lighter weight of ardoise roof tiles.
5. the aerial must be removed from the chimney - oooh triste pour les hirondelles qui reste là et parlent en été.  Enduit or something has to be repaired.  It is unnecessary to replace an aerial when  don't have television and anyway one is not supposed to have an aerila on dsplay if no television is declared for taxes.  If I need one in the future then probably it would be a different aerial system.
6. I gain more wood for kindling.
7. next?   ah.. more rain....but the boss is back for the 2nd time today and so I appreciate his efforts to assist in protecting the floor of the grenier above my nicely finished ceilings below. What a job!!!!!!
8. ah ... I have an idea for a house party!!!!!!
