Cleaning the old tiles |
The first real spring-like sunny day meant I helped Chris lay some beautiful old tiles he just happened to arrive with! They're yellow and red terracotta and look really fab. After laying in ducting for Dave's electric cables, the other job was to clean off mortar from the already re-recycled tiles. These had already been recycled once by us in the previous greenhouse and before that by Kyle. We now have piles of Kyles tiles ready for recyling yet again at the far end of the greenhouse. The used mortar completely filled a whole wheelbarrow and, at the end of the day, a major clear up of brick ends, battens and leftover materials in readiness for greenhouse delivery!

Meanwhile, our design engineer at Hartley Botanic: Josh sent this picture of the down pipes under construction. Installation commences on Monday - can hardly wait! Further tiling will take place after this stage.
