Could You Do This Remote Lonely Job?

This video is dedicated to John Mounsey. A dry stone waller who I was planning to make a video with before he sadly died of cancer this year. Video of one of John’s poems It was an interesting turn of events, because John ended up watching one of my videos, and he had built the walls that had featured in it. We wanted to get together and talk all things walls. I was glad to have some breif chats with John before he died. He said he reckons I would have made a ’good waller’, which made me smile. I follow my favourite wall in this video and chat about the great, hard, brutal profession that it is and was. Especially back in the day without modern day equipment and waterproofs. You were exposed on these hills, and the walls still stand hundreds of years later. Thanks for building them John. I am glad I got to look at them Untill next time, W.T #lakedistrictnationalpark #walls #building #stone #work #hard #mountains
