1st day on site

Today was a full day of work, managed to finish the written part of the project...got both the design and technical briefs done. Putting thoughts into words proved to be very difficult but we got there, hopefully they live up to the judges expectations. Other good points of the day include picking our feature trees (courtesy Allwood Trees), pots (courtesy House and Garden) and getting uniform t'shirts (courtesy Lincoln University).

We stepped on site for the first time today, we have met our first major unexpected challenge....the walls. We have just discovered we have to build our own walls, so we'll be at Placemakers at 7am to get some timber to build them by lunchtime. (hmmm yes that will be wishful thinking maybe).
Here is the before shot of the site........(and a very worried looking Josh) As you can see our neighbours are all very on to it already with walls and beginnings of structures.
Look forward to tomorrow nights blog with a picture of our new walls and border.(fingers crossed) It is all a little daunting at the moment but will get better when we have some form of structure on site I'm sure.
