It feels as if I've been building my 'tower' for years. I've still got a bit of internal plastering to finish off, but otherwise....
Looking back on it all, I'm actually quite amazed by my own and Lady Magnon's skills. It may look small (it's 4 by 4 metres), but without any scaffolding that roofing work was extremely perilous; something I shan't be in a rush to repeat.
My favourite bit has to be the 'genoise' (the decorative bit between the wall and tiles) which came out exactly as I'd planned. Although I must add that my little 'arrow slit' is also quite dramatic, especially from the inside.
I've had sliding doors fitted at the front to save space, and climbing plants have already begun their work of smothering the whole caboodle in greenery. Update in 5 years time.. or maybe 200.
Tell me that that's one hellava sexy roof. Thank you in advance!
