    That is Awesome Sue........and your brick laying skills are showing remarkable improvement. I think with the amount of time you are putting into this project that you have already served your apprenticeship and are now moving on to full journeyman status. Rick H. :thumb2:

      Looking great Sue. Don’t worry about slow progress either, it’s not a race....just enjoy the journey!

          Well thank you Rick. Yaaaay finished my apprenticeship l like the sound of that Rick, it's certainly is a journey a bumpy one with my bricks.
          Lots of sanding to do now before I can go on. Funny thing is when I'm laying the bricks I feel like I'm beening watched.

              Hi Sue
              No worries about it being a slow build. You're getting there and it's looking great.

                    Yup Sue, same comments from me. I'd add that every brick stone is laid with precision. Looking forward to more.

                    Cheers,
                    Richard

                        Great work, you must be really patient - think that I'd have to take a long break after a few bricks!

                          Thank you Chris, I just use ordinary sandpaper and a bit of elbow grease lol. I never thought of using a dremel.

                                Great stuff Sue - coming along nicely! I love the look of the stone work, and if you don't mind me saying... beautifully executed too! I can almost hear those medieval accents chattering away in amongst the busyness of the arched doorways. "A quart of beer for you kind Sir!" I hear her say. "Thank you my maid!" He replies. I can feel a story coming on...
