BYO, Bridges, and Birthdays (Queens Birthday that is)

Well the BYO was a success with heaps of clubbies turning up for a veritable feast of Asian delights. To the disappointment of all no-one (patty) brought goon but some fine wine was drunk by all, turning the night into a quite dinner to a massive one at the pub. I was dead on Friday….

On Sunday some campaginers got up mentally early to go pour the foundation for the bridge which we are repairing. Aparently theres nothing quite like pushing a car and trailer up porters pass with 1/2 a ton of concrete in it. Once there all the tools and stuff went up the goods lift and we drove/wandered up the hill. Rock holes where drilled, steel caging made and a fantasmic foundation was poured to the joy of the civil engineer there whilst battling the cold and a little snow. We are hoping to finish the bridge off on queens birthday weekend.
