A bit behind schedule as per usual but getting there. Wet weather. Unloading reed in Donegal. Idleness. Always something. One more day.....or one bloody long night.... #thatching #ireland #crafts #proofofwork

Wow, sounds like a busy day! 🌧️💪 Take care out there with all that heavy work and the weather, your dedication to the craft is truly inspiring. One day or one long night, you’ve got this! 🙌✨ #RespectTheCraft
Cheers.
Looking really nice. Putting any animals on the top?
No animals. I'm the only animal getting near that roof. I'll ask the client but would then have to source it in England as I don't make em. The EU makes it difficult buying anything from UK. Tax-hungry whores.
😂👍 We will have to work out a smuggling route 😉 . We had an Aussie thatcher round here everyone called skippy so because he made kangaroos for the roof 😁
I'll have to do Kiwi straw dollys then. Let's get smuggling. We can just fill rubber boats up with stuff and we are quids in....
👍 I was looking at getting some basalt columns from Ireland Im sure that will be fine for the return journey 😁.
But if client does want it and it makes sense I guess I could order it and send it as a gift its getting to christmas after all 😄
Paint red and white stripes on them and call them Christmas candy columns.
