Frame is up

After weeks of nailing and hammering (Peter has been hand-nailing in thousands of nails so far), the house is finally starting to take shape and we have the frame pretty much in place. We can now walk around the rooms through doorways and see how it all fits together.

It has been a steep learning curve for Peter but the progress to date would not have been possible without the help of friends, neighbours and many others (including our first permanent guest - Harry the Huntsman spider). Building can be a very sociable thing!

Still lots of hard work ahead though - the strawbale walls will go up next!
