Hut
Building Weekend

Over the weekend of
the 4/5 February work restarted on the Tackle Store extension to the Belfry.
All the timber and most of the fixings had been delivered during the week ready
for a big push to get the roof started. On Saturday a number of Belfryites
including Dany, Tyrone, Mike W, Hasket, Madphil, Toby and Henry B put up the
timber for the ceiling / attic room floor and prepared the ground to get some
of the roof up the next day.

On Sunday work
started early but they were stopped from getting the roof rafters up due to
some block work that needed doing first. Unfortunately it was too cold for
using cement to complete this.

A skip had also
been organised and a huge amount of junk and debris was chucked in it. As a
final topping out the Belfry “diggers” trailer was ceremoniously dumped upside
down to cap the load off. Hilary W also spent a considerable amount of time
cleaning up the inside of the hut.

It is hoped to get
the remaining block work done in the next few days and the roof timberwork
finished.
