Pointing

A busy few days taking the woodburning stove and flue out of my house and installing in the house at Pont de la Taule. I have a smaller woodburner with a smaller diameter flue arriving soon. With the Rayburn and the thatched roof I just don't need such a big stove anymore.

I have also completed pointing the front wall of the house - hopefully that will keep the wasps out and stop the wind blowing through it! Still a bit of the gable-end to finish pointing but as it's South facing it's less important.

Très occupé les dernier jours j'ai sorti la poele et tuyau de chez moi et emporter à la maison à Pont de la Taule. J'ai acheté une poele plus petite avec un tuyau plus petit aussi, ils arrivent bientôt. Avec le Rayburn et le toit en chaume je n'ai plus besoin une poele grande comme celui-ci.

J'ai fini les joints de la fa&ccedil'ade de la maison - j'espere que il soit empecher les geps d'entrer et le vent de souffler dedans! Encore un peu plus de faire.

Hi Lee,

We have been following your blog faithfully and really enjoy the photos and stories. I am inspired to write today to tell you how lovely your house looks. You've done a wonderful job.

Wishing you a great autumn and looking forward to seeing you again in April when we return to the Ariege for house-hunting.
