Slating the second roof side started today


The second gable was completed.

As a change from the house development.
I have started putting the slate paths between the raised veg beds. This is all the broken slates that came of the roof when it was first stripped. It should keep the weeds down and make it easier to get to the beds in muddy wet weather. It will take a lot of walking on before it is broken down and reasonably level but it should be good when it's finished.

The strange black plastic mound on the left of the picture is very weedy raised bed that I have not had time to deal with. Thick black plastic stapled onto the framework should help with clearing it. Especially if I leave it for a year or so - which is quite likely anyway looking at my list of jobs at the moment haha
