Someone has to keep an eye on him, he is up a tree like a monkey. We got the chute supporting ropes uo, Rope kindly donated by Juggernaut.
I am sorry Reskinov about the transport for Nov, I was mixing you up with Johnny boy. Giving you kids you probably don't have:)

Looks tidy , now it needs a work party to cut them into sections and stack them so they get some air through and provide a bit of shelter
(sounds contradictory but im sure you know what I mean )
Grand job all round. Sorry I wasn't there to haul my weight:(

Looks like you have all been busy improving the site, it looks great. I have plenty of free time before the next meet, so if you need a hand I am happy to help out at any work parties that you are doing before the meet.

Yes Adam and Kit both did a great job. Ben and I put the chute support ropes up and Luke brought the actual ropes, also helped do various jops on Saturday AM. As you say Chis the wood needs logging up and double stackiing and covering with any spare tarps that anyone may have lying around. In my opinion it needs stacking in about a 10ft line square on to the wind. Then the ends want returning at 45deg to that. Then covering with tarps, /this will serve twofold, it will form a windbreak and also keep the wood dry
Don't have massive fires as this wood won't last for ever
