Whilst our guests have been here work has been progressing on the land. This despite Mr Maughan coming back yet again to say he no longer wants to give us access.

Our challange is that all materials, including over 100 cubic metres of cement are going to have to be delivered from the road. As the Maughan's have prevented us from crossing the drive, all delivery lorries will block the road for as long as the unloading takes - which with cement will be a day at a time. We have an alternative access for smaller loads but with a 3.5 ton limit. Once we build the new entrance to the site we will have our own private driveway.

This picture shows the hopper parked ready to receive the concrete.



Seeing the cement lorry reverse down the road to the hopper.


And finally he makes it, connecting to the hopper, the cement is then pumped up to 100 metres away to the foundations.
