Labour is good for the soul

Here at Eleusis there is a long term project for the improvement of some of the old buildings. In order to renovate the big barn there needs to be somewhere to store all the things that have been kept there up to now. After some research a flat pack building was obtained from Leroy Merlin, a big DIY supplier here in France. It arrived on a huge palette all wrapped up in plastic.

The day of arrival was not clement and it was unpacked it between hail storms. Eventually all was under cover.

The wood, however, all needed treating, so that was several days work.

Now that is all done - very satisfying. However, it turns out to be the case hat the area of paving laid as foundation is not big enough for the frame of the building, so the next job is digging.
