just a note for ray and des i have dropped some bricks off but do not use them by or in water as they perish and crumble with time and the weather.I am also
waiting for what tools needed for the project at adams pool .The pool is totally covered in ice today and still looks like thick tea |

hiya brumsta. work party did well .improved the stones peg ,the next one to it and bucks .still a fair bit to do mind ,in the way of tree lopping etc but its
getting there .there was 7 turned up ,plus we had machinery on site ,which made light work of most of the jobs mate , never knew how many were going to be
there ,so never done the chilli in the end ,good job really ,as the porta-loo wasnt there .
.atb glen ,hope the leaving party went well for your dad .bet you dont remember
much thou ,well, not after the first thirty pints mate .atb .see ya
soon buddy .

Message for ray
I have spoken to stan and he is willing to drop us a 4 yard skip of top soil , i am doing his boiler for him next week so hopefully i can arrange to get up to the pool with him to drop it somewhere out of the way , all being well we should have the top soil to finish the pegs off within a fortnight I will post back when it has been dropped so we can organise another work party Message for mark Did you say you wanted some pea gravel to put around bucks ????? I have 2 bags in the garage i wuill drop them up there if you want them for the drainage We had another go yesterday and repaired the bridge and strengthened it up as well as installing new pallets in peg one by the gate to make it safer also tidied up the old bits of timber and brush lying around by burning it so the place has tidied up a bit more Main work still to be done is to top soil stones , rays and bucks and add wood chippings and then hedgecut the paths and tidy up the trees/ bushes one more weekend work party should be enough now to finish up tidying the place up regards wag |
