Get down to the Club about 8.30 so I can try and check the delivery to make sure everything is there that should be there. Help load the first 10 piles onto Tam's small barge, then go to the club and get the plates for the pile joints and the nuts and bolts. Though its quite a small pile of metal it seems to weigh a ton, or several, and I resolve that the next lot needs to get straight from my garage to Tam's barge without any intermediate stops. Tam goes off to organise the air hammer and I have a paddle in the mud in front of the club to remove all the brick ends and hard bits that might damage the barge.

Nuts, bolts & washers arrive, today 15th in pouring rain and darn heavy. Really good exercise for our commodore though as my job is just taking the Pics.

(ok so I did help)
