6th November Huf's Team arrives

The bright green Huf Van arrived at 9.00am together with a large lorry and trailer carrying everything you would ever need for a month long Safari trip.

Initially, there were lots of heated discussions on the site between the three man team about where the green cabin should go. This is after all is an essential piece of equipment!

For the journey down from Germany it was filled with drainage pipes and wood and other materials, but on arrival these were all distributed around the site and into the cabin went the television, the fridge, the BBQ, an oven, table and chairs and lots of bottled water ( I didn't see the beer). The heated discussions were apparently all about where the satellite dish could go to get a good reception!!

"So, the site prearation is OK then"?? "Ya OK looks fine" came the reply

Having completed the setting out, the digging of the strip foundations at the front of the building were curtailed by the presence of water in the excavations.

We elected to pump out and wait till tommorow to dig the foundations out.

The Huf team return for Wednesday to start concreting and plan to be finished by Wednesday of next week with the basement complete and ready for backfilling.
