We have a dome!

Alan did it; he finished the dome!
Here, look at the hole at the top.... Going....

Going....

Gone!
Alan had to do a lot of brick cutting to complete the hole, he ended up needing lots of wedge shapes to get them in there.

All Alan's work. :-)

And another view, from the front. Yes, we still have tools and detritus scattered about, but here you can see the size of it.

Now Alan needs to finish covering the dome in cement, and then the thermal insulation blanket will go on, followed by some reinforcement, and finally a stucco coating for the outside. As always, watch this space...
