Kristie<p>A view and a thank you! </p><p>While I'm not ready to be in front of the camera, here's a sincere thank you from behind it.

Kristie<p>We're part of the way through this drystone job, and I'm really enjoying it. Here, you can see the retaining wall we're building from Yorkshire sandstone. Very pleased with how this is coming together. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Drystone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Drystone</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Garden</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Scotland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Scotland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Sustainability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sustainability</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/TraditionalCraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TraditionalCraft</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/CottageGarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CottageGarden</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/DryStoneDyke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DryStoneDyke</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/DrystoneWalling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DrystoneWalling</span></a></p>
Colin Salter<p>A light day's <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/drystonewalling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>drystonewalling</span></a> last Thursday. I persist in trying to keep the stepping stones clear and accessible in <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/edinburgh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>edinburgh</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/Hermitage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hermitage</span></a> - even though people see them only as the starting point for a dam! They block the gaps, so the water flows over the top, rendering them useless as stepping stones. Anyway, I've cleared them again, tidied up the banks and built some steps leading to the stones.</p>
The Sculptor<p>It seems to me that the few times that humans &amp; nature work in perfect harmony is when there is art or craft involved. In this case a gorgeous bit of <a href="https://mas.to/tags/sandstone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sandstone</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/drystonewalling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>drystonewalling</span></a> to create a safe enclosure for a handsome <a href="https://mas.to/tags/oak" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oak</span></a> in a field just outside of Letwell on the <a href="https://mas.to/tags/NorthNotts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NorthNotts</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SouthYorkshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SouthYorkshire</span></a> border.
