Lots of things have been happening in Legoland: a serious rebellion to the east forced the King to call out all his knights, and so Sir Walter spent his summer in a tough campaign, instead of building his castle, as he had intended.

Happily, the fighting season is now over and new shipments of stone and timber have arrived, so work has resumed on the castle.

In these pictures, Geoffery and his men are putting in the last of the heavy timbers that will support the second-story floor.
