One more week until Sherborne Castle......

The weather suddenly changed for us, it's gone from unseasonally cold to RED HOT! Currently we have a glorious Wedgwood blue sky and the temperature is 24-26 degrees. Unfortunately, very hot is almost as bad as very cold when you have a 10 foot tall, 19 foot long wooden horsebox to strip and re-finish. We're having to take time out of the sun to avoid getting heatstroke, but it's nearly finished now - at least everything dries so much quicker in the heat.

Here are a couple of "in progress" photos I took late last week, first the state of the weather beaten offside of the truck....


And now after a few hours with the soda blaster.....


We are spending a lot of time outside just now, but we have got the phone with us! Please forgive us if we take a bit longer than usual to answer. We should be finished in the next couple of days, (more photos to follow).
