April 1st
Richards first working visit for the year now that the weather has
warmed up! Regular expeditions will be made from now on depending on
being able to get leave from work!
We have turned the corner and the first permanent fixing of new wood
starts TODAY. No joke! even if it is April the 1st.
Here are the pictures to prove it!

April 9th.
With re-sealing of the roof beadings
completed last weekend - today I've finished cleaning off excess sealer
from edges of the beadings and air intake pods- that means the roof is
almost finished and ready for painting.

Finished preparation of the roof.
Though I've not had much
time to spare for working on 172 for the rest of April, I have managed
to sort out all the exterior panels which need replacing and source some
exterior trims. I've also refitted (temporally) three nearside upper
panels, its easier on your back sanding vertically! and important to
check that I've cut the new waist rails in the correct place.
