Strange item in photo ....

Wow that's a fantastic looking house Paul.

Did by any chance bloke with your skills build this log mansion yourself??

No Chris, I bought the place just on 19 years ago this month.
It was about 5 years old at that time.
A guy by the name of Brendan Rossiter built it, he was only 19 at the time !
 
If it is only lightly used send it to me , kipper or descose we can get a wee bit more life out of it.

The original ones were extremely expensive calfskin or fish swim bladders etc and were washed and re-used by the owner and possibly handed down from Father to son.

Brought a tear to me eyes just thinkin' bout the savins'

They have hobbits too

And I guess they have trees too in order to have logs.

And yes, nice home Paul. My wife and I had once planned to build one when I retired but it never happened. A good friend here builds beautiful log homes and corrected me once when I referred to them as "log cabins".

remind me of the scot walking in a pharmacy and delicately opening an handkerchief in front of the head pharmacist asking him if he could put a patch on the sorry looking condom seating in the kerchief the pharmacist upon glancing on the sorry condom told him SIR this is disgusting I see already some patches on this condom don't you know it is to be used only once and promptly grab the handkerchief closes it and dump it in a waste basket upon which the poor scot picks it back up telling the pharmacist sorry it is not mine it belong to the clubhouse ...
 
I know this is a RIII forum but I suspect you could tell a few tales about the design and build of that house- what is shown is frankly breathtaking, how fortunate are you!!
