Four of us joined Bree and Jess for a day at the seaside. The original job planned for today had to be changed due to machinery malfunction, but they had some good alternatives for us to get stuck into.
The first job involved a fire - eat your heart out Neil, Andy & Jack! There were large piles of brash and cuttings plus loads and loads of chestnut fencing that had all been removed when dismantling Victoria Road car park. Our aim was to get this done before the rain started at lunchtime. Talk about precision work - as the last lot was put on the fire the first spots of rain started to fall!
The second job was to complete a wall of double/triple layers of fence posts. This is to replace fallen down fencing which was to separate different size stones for the paths.
Finally, we dismantled, de-nailed and cleared timber from the yard and stacked it in a massive skip. Again a lot of this had come from Victoria Road.
As far as the new car park is concerned, it is well under way and surprisingly is ahead of schedule with it hoping to be complete for next spring.
Bree and Jess were more than happy with what had been achieved, as these were jobs that kept being put on the back burner for more pressing jobs.
Thanks to my colleagues for their hard work and good company.
