Sarah - trouble on two fronts
Having done the corridor outside the dining room, Sarah turned her expertise onto the Duty Officer's cupboard and painted it.  Unfortunately, she failed to consult anybody about it and managed not only to cover it with emulsion paint, but a fairly vile colour at that.
Find out the difference (Sarah) between emulsion and gloss paint

Progress in Gents (no, not the dig)
There was great activity in the Gents toilets; for a start it was invaded by ladies.  In response, a male working party was immediately installed in the Ladies toilets.  Graham had by now sorted out the worst of the floor sections and was installing replacement woodwork.  Others started on the ceiling and walls, all of which were in need of a good coat of paint.  It proved to be easier to remove the bog pans one by one rather than to tile round them.  The inevitable happened when Trap 2 was out and somebody flushed Trap 3 upstream.

Too much for some .....
The inevitable Working Week injury was sustained when Judy Day strained her Achilles tendon and had to make the annual pilgrimage to Morriston.  This provided a useful opportunity to obtain more beer from a local brewery as supplies were running low and we were not going to go another night on existing stocks.

..... and fine for others
Simon arrived with extra sand as we had underestimated the amount of concrete required for the campsite water point and lintel replacements. Drainage and water works at the top end were completed, the hole filled, and the paving slabs loosely replaced.  Meanwhile, other jobs proceeded just about on schedule.
