Has anyone chopped down that bush opposite the arch yet?
If not ill bring bow saw and loppers.
I had to park in it the other day.

No, the Sycamore and Buddleia are still standing.

I got a very bad puncture parking there on Sat, so be very careful.

Also: that's where we're about to chuck all the rubbish!

Dermot.

[Gordon Endersby]

No puncture for me luckily.
The wife wouldnt have been happy.
What was it a nail or glass?
We may have to do something about that as well and clear any sharp objects after the rubbish is cleared.

Dermot showed me the guilty object. It was the fixing end of a metal furniture foot. 7mm wide and blunt, with a large domed pad on the other end, but it levered its way right into the tire. Proper raise your eyebrows job.

Yeah we need rubble sacks that we can scoop this crap into.

We can rake over the area to loosen it up and run a strong magnet over it to clear metal like that and nails. I should imagine we will install a covered bike rack at some point as we have so many cyclists so they will appreciate not getting punctures.

[Darren Bex]

I should be there about 7.30. 

Any hand tools required or are we just heaving stuff around?

I'll bring a wheel barrow and shovel..

[Tom Lynch]

We can't use the outside space for anything permanent. We will need to talk to the landlord about this.

Definately gloves.

[Dermot Jones]

He's said no to that sort of thing at the moment.

Doesn't mean we can't propose a bike shelter somewhere on the estate in the future.

[Gordon Endersby]

Thats a shame.

Gordon

[Dermot Jones]

There's a bulk bag full of empty compost bags just inside the shutter, they're for filling with rubble.

There's about five pairs of gloves there, so bring some along if you have them.

We are salvaging all useful timber and ply. A pile of de-nailed timber is growing on the left side at the back. Nail-riddled timber on the right.

We will need a good sized sheet of ply for mixing mortar and concrete on. OSB is no good for this.

Decisions will be made tonight about the furniture/filing cabinets etc. If anyone wants these, then stake your claim.

Other work:

Anyone who wants to continue the concrete breaking is most welcome!

There's some plumbing to get on with over the next week or so. Anyone with good experience with Cu compression fittings and solvent weld plastic that wants to tackle these let me know.

Plus the GoPro needs to have a mains  extension run to it. For this we need flex clipped to the wall/ceiling with plug one end and socket on other. I have USB transformer and USB cable, but not not the other stuff. I can leave tall ladder for the weekend if someone wants to tackle this.

Slightly upside down.....but good.

[Gordon Endersby]

My legs and arms hurt from lugging the junk out.

Ill bring a replacement halogen bulb for the blown site light next week unless anyone's got some spare. They are the standard 500w floodlight type.
Did anyone take a picture of the car parked outside the arch surrounded by junk?

Gordon

[Tom Lynch]

Yes.

[Dermot Jones]

Where did the blue pallets go to? They're to be collected, not land filled.

Dermot.

[Tom Lynch]

Hey,

We put them outside ready for collection, we just need to make sure everyone knows not throw them away and the calor as well i
guess.

Not to mention the calor isn't completely empty
