Six - Wednesday 19th August -
Lagarde


The age old question of how many men it takes to take a stack of firewood in long lengths into a mound of firewood in short lengths has been answered, and given the minute amount of time it took to accomplish the task, we were wondering whether six of us, and perhaps a combustion engine powered bandsaw would reduce our task to just one morning.

Then Jürgen and Ele arrived, followed shortly thereafter by George and Karen which gave us the magic total, and somehow instead of speeding up, things simply ground to a halt.

We did make some progress, but it’s chopping firewood in reverse.  We have everything in little pieces and when it’s back together in one neat pile of big bits we can go.
