I just found this because I followed Leftwood's mugs here, but wow. Beautiful stonework. I love the roughly piled line too. I just love rocks.
I plan to build drystone boundary walls around two sides of the new (1 acre) property I have moved to. It will take alot of time, alot of rock and alot of back, but I don't care if it takes years. I just want to do it.
My Gran had alot of Pam Ayers poetry books around when I was a kid. I'm told it's terrible poetry (is doggerel a bad thing?) but this one stuck and formed a lasting vision.
I am a drystone waller
I am a drystone waller
All day I drystone wall
Of all the appalling callings
Drystone walling's worst of all
Sorry Pam, if I've misremembered and forgotten punctuation, but you changed my life forever. I want to be a drystone waller!
