Day 19 - Ollie Goddard


After deciding to increase the height of the swings, the morning was spent widening the footings whilst additional crew members finished fabricating the frames; the first frames and cross member were installed before lunch.  We began the afternoon by setting the frames into the foundations before all hands moved on to helping raise the tyre swing.     

Emma and I left the site early to visit the timber yard to see if our timber for the climbing frame and stage had been delivered.  We arrived to hear that our order couldn’t be delivered until next Thursday due to the processing machinery malfunctioning and the severe rainfall disrupting road networks.  This has left us feeling gutted as many evenings spent designing and detailing have gone to waste.  We will need to have a serious think about our contingency to how we deliver such an important aspect of the playground to which is one of the only few requests from the teachers.
