extension

Rain, rain go away…soon changed my tune. Wet with the exception of a bit of the volcano line; rubbish though so we extended the hut.

After a brief discussion between Scott and Ben as to the merits of different roof suspension\tension methods we got underway; Paul pretty much re-wove the side on his own mainly ‘cos nobody else wants to work with him. Jacks’ OCD kicked in and he put carpet down inside the hut, his favourite new feature seemed to be the back door though…

Found the old hand axe and spent a fun half hour throwing it at a dead tree…what can I say an afternoon of making camps and throwing sharp stuff around is a win in my book; good times, shame everyone else has disappeared!

Spent the week retesting new sets, seems to make the rest of the line easier but still loads to be done down there... Chelmsford skatepark; wow they wasted so much money on more slippery paint, how much did it cost to turn a crap driveway 180 degrees? Was it worth ...
