Well, this is just my first approach to blog-writing. I want it to be the way to keep in touch with colleagues and friends.

| Maintenance |
|
These rainy months there is more time for small maintenance activities. Basic shuttering and bricklaying. A new ground slab below the barn, a small wall for a gate, setting up a post in a fence, placing a concrete drainage pipe.
Note added on April, 22.
This is a 1 m length wall, very small in length. To build it I used different bricks that remained from works done in previous years. As I had a very small amount of equal bricks, I wanted to avoid cutting them. This why the joints do not appear exactly centered in this row, as I wanted to avoid cutting them to have sufficient bricks to finish the wall. Joints should be more centered, each brick finishing at the length of half the bricks on the inferior and superior rows. |
