We’ve all been busy bees today.
The furniture delivery chaps turned up at 8.00 this morning; well technically they turned up at 17.00 last night from Huddersfield and had to sleep in the lorry. Why? Well sadly it was because we still didn’t have the say so from the project manager’s Parsons Brinkerhoff to get into the building.
The furniture making chaps then turned up, from London
Andy the Construction Manager from Farnrise Construction and his brother came down to sort out some doors and 2 screws. Yes they travelled from Portsmouth to fix two screws.
Some other chaps from Southampton came to fix the roof.

The team turned up from around Swanage.
We still haven’t got the say so Parsons Brickenhoff to enter the building so we spent the day not cleaning the station for the Grand Opening tomorrow, and not putting whiteboards on walls. Oh and we did not eat fish and chips in the new building either. ….nor did we stuff the empty chip wrappers in Ian’s motorcycle helmet.
It’s been a good day not doing stuff.
Official Apology:
Following concerns raised by the boss I offer an unreserved apology to Somerfields in Swanage, who I referred to early in the week as ‘Scummerfield’.
I’d just like to go on record to say that this name is purely an affectionate term for the business (...like ‘Woolies’), and that I was not commenting on their clientele, or staff, or food. I shop there and must say their range of cold meats and pork pastry products is second to none; the two for one offer on chicken wrapped in bacon with a cheese sauce is particularly popular this week.
