Re: [ VOLUNTEER WORK THREAD ]
The main work planned for tomorrow now will be weeding - so bring gloves and any tools you may need. We have a few scrapers and shears. Plus some prep for the concrete work (shuttering boards).
The main concrete base digging work is now likely to be Sunday or Monday due to getting the relevant digger etc.. but we're probably ok for people on that for now, as we're using a digger.
Bob should be here tomorrow to direct what needs doing, but basically just work around the edge of the ground and remove weeds etc.. The main bits have already been strimmed and mowed, and some initial weedkilling has been done.
The following Saturday is still likely to need folks to help with concrete work and barrowing it to a few places around, plus we should be ok to then do some rubbing/down painting of the pitchside barriers.

Always best exit route through the sun roof. Keep well away from those hip bones & messy areas. Still that's far to much detail can we get back to digging out for concrete & weeding please.

Re: [ VOLUNTEER WORK THREAD ]
BUMP - If you can make it down today to help out, Bob should be there from 9am.
As before, mainly weeding today. We have a few weed scrapers and shears down there, but bring any other tools you think may be useful along. Plenty of bin bags there also.
There is a bit of Blue Painting for the changing rooms should anyone wish to do a bit of that - although best bring your own brush. Most of the painting work is likely for next weekend, or during the week after.

Re: [ VOLUNTEER WORK THREAD ]
A big thank you to Dunk, Robin and Paul for helping out today.
The tunnel is up and most of the weeding on the patio area has been done.
A bit disapointed we didn't get more people down there today, we will need more bodies next week 8-)
