Sick of the rain, we put a tarp over the whole site	Then to dry things out we hired a heater	Means that we can keep going with the rendering
Mark was thinking that if he wore a bandana and pulled faces he would stand out even more than just wearing pink	Pizza for lunch	Blair has some lights in place and working
Steve Potts (CEO of the NGIV) is not happy about getting his hands dirty!	Wonder what Shane is thinking?!	It’s a day of departures – the last of our containers, Ponty and Dean all leave today
Wes starts getting the Phormium ready for planting	Electric and Percy start work on the random bluestone paving	If you look closely you will see that Stephen is wearing Diggler’s coat so that he doesn’t get his dirty
The heater has worked and mark can start waterproofing the pond	Wes at home in the plants	Behind the haze is Shane
	More negotiations about where we are going to put our stuff
