Having honed his skill as a builder on his barbeque, Jan decided to build up the old pigsties and put a decent roof on to use as a store room, as one thing the houses in Haarlem did not have, was storage! So in due course a whole batch of bricks were unloaded, then a heap of building sand, and Jan brought cement from George.
I think the moment the realisation got through to him of the immensity of the task he lost a wee bit of courage, and after two weekends of sitting on the stoep, contemplating the job in hand, he one Saturday morning got up even before Sheila's cock started crowing, got everything together, and started mixing the cement. He had this little cement mixer that they bought at an auction, but after struggling for some time, as this thing worked well enough, but it could only do small batches in one go, so that was discarded, and Jan was onto hard labour! He wasn't too fit at that stage, as living in a big city like Pretoria where they lived after coming back from Denmark, do not give one a lot of opportunities to stay fit, and on top of that, he sat in front of his computer the whole day, doing his job. In no time he was sweating and heaving, but he stuck to it, and by late afternoon his face was burned to the likes of a beetroot, but he had built quite a few rows. He had to take down a few bricks every now and then, as his wall tended to go a bitty skew, but all in all he was doing fine.
In the meantime Ronalee's monster pig Rosy, was to go to a different lover, as the first encounter with a beau did not work out well for her, and it left the poor girl quite frustrated, and bad tempered, while her beau just went happily with the next girl that was brought to him! This time they had found her a lover worth ten of the other one, as he was just about as big as Rosy, and according to his loving owner, a real stud!
A problem arose when it came to getting Rosy to her love nest, as she wouldn't get onto Ronalee's truck, and she was too heavy to lift, and also too dangerous, as she was one bad tempered pig when upset, and maybe she remembered her previous drive to the other male, for she went for the workers with intent to harm!
In the end the owner of the chosen one came with his sleepwa (open trailer) as that was not so high, stating that he had got a lot of disgruntled pigs onto this, and that it would be easy to get Rosy to get on. Mmmm! After struggling for ages, it was decided to remove the sleepwa's back wheels, and then herd the virgin Rosy onto it by forming two lines, brandishing whatever each of them could find. It worked, well, not after a lot of swearing abd yelling, and Rosy screeching fit to raise the dead, but eventually the wheels could be put back on, and the bridal group were off!
