The sun was still shining when I visited the Church today; where was the heavy rain that was forecast? Fochabers! that's where, and I hope my friends up there are all Ok. There is some beautiful Burne-Jones Stained Glass in the Gordon Chapel up there.
Anyway back to KH; The floors and the cupboard in the hall were being replaced today. No more backrest for the Choir on Sundays. Nor a place for extra notices, however the work upstairs is moving on apace.

Today was also the last day at KH for two of the Hunter & Clark workers: Charlie who retires after 30 years with H&C and Paul who has finished his part of the project; setting all the concrete lintels in mortar, and he also proved to be a very useful pair of hands or perhaps more correctly shoulders up in the roof space. I'm not sure exactly what he was doing up there today, but he seemed to to have brought down a goodly amount of soot on his face and clothes. As good a representation of a chimney sweep as I've seen in a long time. We wish him luck at his new task in Kilmacolm. As for Charlie, we may spot him in Byres Road--A gentlemen of Leisure--
Enjoy your retirement Charlie!
Naturally a group photo was necessary:
