Gazebo building is definitely not my strong point. George & I usually get
away with finding someone else (ie. male) to do the building. George
thought she was right at Barastoc when a guy came up to her, looked at the
gazebo we were trying to build (this was our first attempt & the directions
were long gone) but then proceeded to say "yeh, they can take a while to
build, I've just finished building ours", & then walked off. We did work it
out in the end, only to end up putting it over the yards for the ponies, so
ours too is now very bent (ponies shouldn't rub on them, not recommended!).

have come that far - what the heck!! you must have a better gazebo than

a carton of beer to get it up - and it was crooked in the end! Bel
