Dry stone walling course

Today was the day. Ten o'clock and eleven of us assembled to be initiated into the finer points of the art. It was a really interesting six hours - good company and food as well as a real sense of satisfaction that a pile of ill-assorted stones can be turned into a useable and presentable wall. I would have to add that at the end of the day, the use of the word dry could have been construed as very misleading.
At this stage however I must own up to the fact that this image is not one we built - it was a photo I recycled from last September taken in Galicia in Spain and it was a series of almost two thousand year old walls on a spectacular promontory on the coast.
If what we did today looks like this in two thousand years time I suspect we will be happy - as well as dead!
