Don Justo's big kirk






Don Justo, has been building his Cathedral single handedly for almost 50 years - using only recycled materials. He is now in his 80s and still hopes to finish so has enlisted some volunteers. The council pretend to ignore the breech of planning permission but plan to demolish it when he is no longer here. Tourists love it despite the safety warning. A huge achievement for a young monk who was expelled from his monastry when he got TB in his 20s. Distinctive in his red hat, I wasnt sure if he was plastering that balcony or getting ready to preach. Andrew left and took his halo with him.
