Hi I am on the coast halfway between Burgas and Varna. Tip for the future when using a stringline,,,cut 3 pieces of material the same thickness..osb or ply will do.100x50, or thereabouts. put one between the string and the post at the start of the line and then another at the end. This leaves the 3rd to use as a gauge for all the other points/posts. Avoids the possible interference points that can throw the whole job out.

Well done once more. With us the cold weather has arrived and we're wearing our padded jackets today. I would imagine the colder weather will be with you soon, so I wish you success in getting the roof completed over the caravan. I see foreman Alex is doing well. Take care, looking forward to the next episode.

Yes the cold weather is certain kicking in now. We cannot wait for the roof to be finished - but daily life often delays these things. ☺️

Thank you very much we absolutely love it here 🤩

I am hoping you are more prepared for the cold than the snow. Its very warm still for this time of year it can possibly be minus twenty Celsius. A well insulated room or two would be very advantageous and save a ton of fuel on heating. All the best.

Yes and the temperature has certainly started dropping here. We live in our caravan as our house is uninhabitable and so are the barns. Who knows - maybe next winter our first phase of our project will be completed ☺️🏚️

Ember bless her, far to refined for cake smashing😂 Love a bit of precision chainsaw carpentry! Keep up the good work guys, looking forward to a proper catch up soon!

Thanks Benny! Yea can't wait for a proper catch up! Yea she was a bit like that 😂. It was hardly precision, that's why I had to spend so long with a hammer and chisel! 🤣.

Awww loved this, especially Ember's cake smash! She's such a cutie and looks at her big brother with such adoration. So beautiful!xxx
