Ave you got any pictures of the work you guys have been doing? Particularly the wall. Under the main stand?

My first game of the season is not likely to be until Mid October but even that is not guaranteed

I'm really interested in what goes on behind the scenes

I've sent you a PM mate, drop me your e-mail address and I'll send the photo's off to you.

I don't know how to put them on here but if anyone can I'll send some to you if you can PM me your e-mail address.

After a lot of deliberation and conferring I decided to paint the plank of wood that the first aiders sit on. I hope to God it is fully dried out by Saturday as I would hate an incident to occur on the pitch and the said people unable to move due to being glued to the seat.
A good mornings work by everyone.

Superb effort... Proud of you all from the capital

Well done Elaine and all you hardcore regulars. I'M sure everyone's efforts will be appreciated by the masses when the season kicks off.

Any help with cleaning the stand seats today would be appreciated folks. Even if you can spare just an hour would be great.
I should be cutting the overgrown privet hedge at home but yet again it is on hold.
At least it is a nice day.

Holkerbird wrote:Ian perhaps there's some on here who can do it during the week. Worth a try.

Just thought it worth bringing up Elaine, there is still plenty going on during the week but it never gets mentioned on here. As well as you still going down we have had Whitty 1969 fixing lights inside the X Bar and main building, Mark Mc painting the cellar doors, Mrssenoritta & IRVJ doing some work in the stairwell & corporates and IRVJ & Exile putting new signs up on the perimeter wall.

All these jobs save a considerable amount of money that would otherwise have been billed to the club.

If anyone would like to help at any time but can't do Sunday mornings, just drop me a PM/text/e-mail and we'll sort something out.

When's the next Sunday morning session Ian?

Not sure Elaine, might aim for a week Sunday.

Any plans for this Sunday Ian?

It´s been a while since I ruined any clothes with Holker St. paint

No plans for this Sunday - well not ground-wise but if you're around tomorrow afternoon Ryan, Tommy and IRVJ will be at the ground in the afternoon.

Once again you time your visits to coincide with nothing happening.......inside information

I don't get there until late afternoon unfortunately

I said I would help Elaine next week if she is at the ground so no doubt I'll be cleaning sinks with a toothbrush or something before long

Holkerbird wrote:When's the next Sunday morning session Ian?

Little bit later than we planned Elaine, although various people have been doing jobs throughout the week (non more so than IRVJ & Elaine lately)

We'll be there this coming Sunday with various jobs from painting, steelwork fabrication, general tidy-up, signs to go up, some signs to take down and move, sorting some problems with gates and a couple of parking barriers to make and fit.

Any help would be appreciated, 9:00am onwards.

No doubt Ryan has disappeared again.....haha.

Oh great---the morning after the long haul to Lincoln and back.
You can count me out as I will have been on 7 trains for this match-thanks to Bahamasbluebird and his cheap travel arrangements.

Causes some trouble does that lad....

Forgot to mention, Emma has very kindly offered to take the orders for the breakfast buns.

That's homeless Billy down there then!

A 4-1 win away from home and now this in the same week. I am off to buy a lottery ticket
