That is beautiful Clayton, true work of art! Is that the one that was under scaffold before Christmas?

Compared to our Suffolk thatch's which look 2ft thick, it seems quite thin? Is it a different style/technique/product? James

Ah! I know where that is! Once spent a very windy night in our type II VW camper there - but fabulous to wake up to.

Once buzzed in by RIB after diving up near Cape Wrath. Lovely spot. Donald
