  • So you can imagine working from home has me bouncing off the walls.

  • Mhm.

  • So I decided to see if I could be inspired by one of great big stories, very own characters.

  • I've built around 50 nests all over the country.

  • Some of the nests are as Bigas £100,000 of wood.

  • But what if something that impressive could be built by someone average average?

  • That's optimistic.

  • I haven't got watch on exactly seven days to cut, screw assembled, know, gather we've useless.

  • Actually, I've got quite a lot to dio.

  • So I guess I should probably get on with it, man.

  • Yeah.

  • People often say things were built with blood, sweat and tears, but so far I think it's just 100% sweat tells him in Oh, God, my fiance is always accusing me of putting up walls.
