Looks great, here in the states when a man refers to another man as his "mate", it means his partner or wife. Either way you and your wife do nice work.

What did you seal the wood with?

Re: A Nice Window

Re: A Nice Window


still looks open to me beneath the slate. Is it being closed in to prevent nesting birds? Looks good anyways.

Re: A Nice Window


Summertime, is that even a window to a room, or just to attic space?
