The electrical rewire should complete over this (bank holiday) weekend. We have the fire officer revisiting us on 1st September to review what we have done (he recommended a list of actions and all but one will have been carried out by the time he arrives).
The outstanding fire action item is the kitchen servery hatch. We dont have £760 plus VAT and we have asked him what DIY solutions he would accept...
The flag pole holder arrived (from ebay land) and this will need screwing to the wall - probably at the same time as we put up the large QE II portrait.
I met with a trustee (and adviser to the PC) in the hall late this afternoon. Lets see if we can finally secure some financial support from pot holders in the village. A key time is the September PC meeting. If we are not supported financially, the Scout Group will have to embark on a serious fund raising programme that will enable this project to complete.

Red light excitement - wiggly amps arrive
The electrical rewire is underway. We lost a day due to the electrician being ill, but he pitched up late this afternoon and we now have wiggly amps flowing into a box that holds the main switch, RCD's and breakers for the rest of the system. We can now expect main hall lights, power in the kitchen and exit lights to be powered up by the end of tomorrow.
This week has been all about preparing for the first open afternoon. Paint touch ups, water pipe repairs, fitting toilets and getting the place ready for an influx of Chiseldon villagers.
This afternoon I created some written info and posted it in the hall. The display tells our situation, explains that we still need cash and underlines the fact this this is a project that has yet to complete.
Our Chairman visited the hall this afternoon.
Cabaret tables are being removed from storage and are on the way to the hall as I type (better get over there and unload).
At tea time I continued the scrubbing of the gents loo floor that the Veveri started. Its not fun, its horrible, but my surfboard / body board didn't half save my legs.
