    Apparently it's just going to get worse as time goes on I have regular appointments at the pain management clinic which is a bit of a farce, as nothing seems to help

    Where it was only the right side that was affected, in the last 6 weeks the left side is also extremely painful which has restricted movementto both arms now Luckily the solicitor has advised that work have now accepted legal responsibility as wel as liability which means we as a step closer to getting the £15k I have spent on after care since the accident

    Luckily I can still take the mick and drink tea

    work left to complete the cladding and facia and sofit board.

    Hi all
    I want to update you as to whats left to be done regarding the cladding and facia and sofit boards.
    William my Son and Victoria my Daughter put up a sterling performance and we managed to get the bulk of the timber frame up, this will need the fixings sorted and the frame packed to true it as it may twist by September. We could not get the noggins fitted as we ran out of screws and timber.
    If any one has larger ladders bring them with as the largest on site is to short for the facias and soffits.
    It took four of us two days to frame and clad the first building and it took three of us two days to frame the second two.
    Numbers this time are vital to get the job done before the winter sets in.
    The first building needs finishing to the door area.and the facia and soffit fitted.
    The other two will need cladding, and facia and soffit fitted, The areas around the down pipes will also need to be clad and this will be fiddley.
    Unfortunately we could not get as much done as we wanted to due to pressure of my work and the coaching starting for the International competion the bank holiday week end. We wont be there Sept the 24th Victorias back at Uni and I am up in Scotland.
    I hope the post helps in preparing for the work.
    More power to the BBS and the spirit of its members.
    All the best
    oilyreid aka Nick, William and Victoria.

    Thanks for the update, Nick, and please thank William and Victoria for their efforts, too. You should feel rightly proud of them, mate.

    All the best,

    Pete.
