Jack Straw's Falmer Watch No 39B (18/9/09)

Here's the others.

Ooooh, is that the first sign of the seating frames being installed in that last pic ?

My thought exactly - it looks that way.

Do we know what they'll be spelling out, if anything, with white seats amongst the blue?

Now I may be speaking out of turn here, as a girl, but I think what you're talking about is actually for casting the concrete for the terrace bit. If you look above the blue line, there are no terraces, only a slope, whereas below it there are, so I presume it's where they pour the concrete up against in order to form a step.*

Or shall I go and sit back in the corner and concentrate on my ironing?

*if someone engineering-minded can tell me what the technical terms for all these things I am badly attempting to describe, I'd be grateful

Gawd, hopefully nothing at all. You don't have to be as poncy as PMB or even me to find that always looks horribly tacky.

Fine work as ever JS. Looking forward to some demolition pics soon - guess everyone loves a bit of that.

Make us a cuppa love eh?

Actually, thats what it looks like.

The big concrete pouring hopper in the last pic is probably the clincher.

Milk and sugar?

Personally, I'm pleased to note that the Buckingham Group appear to be adhering to their promise of "Improving The Image Of Construction", as seen on the signs around the site.

At least two builders are bending over in the last shot, and yet there's not an arse cheek in sight.



*awaits Palace fan posting that this would be a first for Brighton*

 

[Notters]

Is that natterjack in the second picture with the beard, pretending to be a teapot?

 

[Everest]

That rules out 1 person, Notters

Is the correct answer.

Im guessing Natterjack is in that last shot taking a picture whilst his mate is looking up asking for help rather fuckin about

It certainly looks like him in that last one.
Does this mean now his cover is blown he's ready to go "on camera"

[Basil Fawlty]

There only ever looks to be about 6 people building the whole thing. Can they not get another 6 to start on another stand or start painting or something.

 

[Hiney]

I'm a bit concerned that some of the workers seem to be wearing their HARD-HATS back to front.

Is this DANGEROUS, or just FASHIONABLE?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]
