Wide view of a drystone bench set into a curved stone wall on a grassy bank beside Loch Voil. The wall is built from mixed local stone with upright coping stones along the top. Leafless trees and a sloping hillside rise behind the bench.

   I call myself a fair-weather waller. I don’t do drystone work through the worst of winter. If you have ever jammed numb fingers between cold stones, started a morning by sledgehammering apart a frozen stone pile, or done a pee outside, bum exposed to biting winter air, you will understand why.

   Drystone season is almost upon us. This year we have a run of really interesting jobs and I have a new ambition, learning to drive a digger.
