Chelsea 2009 Build Day 2 - 9 days to go

Well we had a fantastic day yesterday, the team got so much done and we are very much still on schedule - which is a relief. Managed to get most of the units into position and re adjusted, was quite amusing getting our Wine chiller into situ, got lots of interest from the neighbouring teams, asking if they could keep their wine chilled in our fridge! The kick boards went in (for the first time) and they really do finish it off very well. Neil from Eco Lutions got the first set of LED strip lights put into the pergola uprights - they look amazing, even in day light you can see the effect, can't wait to see what they look like at night! Dashed off to Peter Jones to purchase a kettle, needed one for the garden anyway, but came in jolly useful yesterday making teas and coffees for the team.

Neil brought the Waterproof Tv with him anyway (even though we're pretty sure we can't use it on the garden) still trying to talk the RHS into letting us use it in the midst of our Edible Wall. Will talk to the show manager again on monday, but they have already said no, so it will probably be a no.....................

The team are back on site today, I am having a day off, before my run of 13 solid 12 hour days. sounds like they are already having a good day, spoke to Tristen a short while ago and apparently the hard wood cladding is now in place on the curved frontage - something of a transformation I'm told , can't wait to see it tomorrow.
