Man at work...

Graham is the best builder I have ever used.  He is meticulous, hard working and quotes a fair price for a good job.  He is up here today on phase two of the roof repairs and the pic shows him rejoicing at having finished the tricky bits.  He's re-established loose slates, routed and grouted corroded joints, replaced fatigued leading and all those things that needed doing and I didn't notice until the water came in (again).  Ahead of him lie weeks of fun snow boarding and ice climbing in the Pyrenees.  In September he was snow climbing in the foothills around Everest, just titchy 20,000 footers.   Did I mention that he's mad?
