On this last day of the summer
months our flat pack summerhouse arrived early and I got cracking straight away,
identifying all the bits of wood and ironmongery (which took an hour) before calling
in the student for some technical assistance (“hold that up while I drill/screw/hammer”);
it was a bit more complex than the average flat pack construction, particularly
it being outdoors on a breezy day, but we managed to get the four walls
attached together and to the floor, and then the roof fixed on, complete with
felting (in this element the student graduated to skilled apprentice) before it
went dark, leaving it a summer-half-way-house (door-less and window-less) overnight.
