It is going to look great,bet your back is aching as well as the skinless hands.Carolecarole johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721058683205450682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-53854241845732722012010-08-16T19:24:08.386+01:002010-08-16T19:24:08.386+01:00Lots of hard work there!

Strangely nothing is ever mentioned about upwards. Presumably we could have built it 20 stories high.Cro Magnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840670227576695352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-15799501213463672382010-08-16T08:12:00.266+01:002010-08-16T08:12:00.266+01:00Ah, I get it.

The arrow slit faces due east, so on sunny mornings it casts a bright cross on the opposite interior wall.
