First task is to attach a wooden batten straight across, then I will cut a piece of marine plywood to meet the roof.
I spend most of the morning figuring out how to get a piece of 8' x 4' plywood here. After cutting it in half at the builders yard myself, I load it into Alan's car, and get up here. Then 'aww' damaged his leather upholstery in pulling the wood out of the car 😤.
The first cut of plywood (described above) is quite easy, but it is raining.
The next one, to replace the rotton curvy piece down the front of the van is harder. I use wallpaper to make a template, and cut this at home where I can get out of the rain and brace the wood more easily.

The only other tasks I attempt given the weather are trying to secure the door closer better as it still lets in water (this is temporary, I will have to buy a better lock). And getting the remaining old ceiling plywood out from the connection between the roof and wall on the left side, this is painstaking and still not complete.
