Track Work

Guys, Julian is planning on being at the track on Saturday and we are looking for volunteers to attend and give him a hand.

Steve and myself will be there on Sunday again for the track work.

Remember sooner we get the work done the sooner we are racing etc.

I'll be around on saturday, just let me know when.

I'll be there Sunday but can't make Saturday as well - the missus will not be impressed if I go off on my own enjoying myself both days - suggested she could come and hand out tea and biscuits but she gave me one of those looks....

I think my wife may come to the track on Sunday, but I expect not when it comes to the day!

Indeed, I can't do both days, so I know what you mean Rob. She gave me the look last night when she came home to car bits in the lounge and cars everywhere

[jkonline]

I will be there Sunday.

We've laid the first drainage pipe down. I had to leave a short while ago, and the guys were working on the trench for the second pipe. Not sure how far they'll get through, but they won't be able to complete it because we don't have enough pea shingle left. If the trench isn't complete, it needs to be dug to 1 1/4 spades deep.

edit: it's looking a bit muddy for the roller at the moment - it'll probably just churn the mud up. We don't have enough sharp sand to cover the surface, so it's up to you guys to figure out what to do . I was wondering if laying old astro in front of the roller as it goes along might stop it from picking the mud up.

Sorry guys, but won't be there. Sounds like great progress though

[RobW]

Well done the Saturday crew - sounds like great progress.

It's 08.30am and I'm just about to leave and it looks pretty wet - I live about 10-15 mins from track.

Had a thought about Alastair's astro-turf in front of roller and just remembered I've got a couple of old rugs (for the floor not my head) - they will be a lot light than astro-turf - I'll bring them along in case it works.

How did the rest of yesterday go? - I left about 11.45 when we were waiting for digger keys.
