right today clone Nelson and Myself went over to NSC all day to work on hamburger hill. Good news is its coming along nicely.

as clone mentioned before theres now a roof over part of it, today we managed to get it dug down enough so its easy to get under without bashing your head, as i did, a few times (hence we dug it out) both bunkers are now pretty much built up on each side and the floor is leveled out in them.

we got a firing step inside the main bunker running the length of it, its solid enough for a few game days till we get it sorted permanently.

Clone also came up with the idea of a bridge running over the oposite side between the far bunker and the main one. We got that built today just need to finish off either end with a bit earth so theres not a step just a ramp onto it. its unbelieveably stable aswell.

work on the near bunker is coming along nicely.we are in the process of boxing in the front a little and putting in some firing holes, as we dont have sandbags this is the best option we have. theres no roof over this so the walls are about 3 foot high

hopefully we can get back down again tomorrow to finish it off.

clones got a few fotos to let you all see how its coming along. the rain and hale slowed us down a little at one point but after an hour or so it buggered off for the sunshine again lol

hopefully clone will get photos up tonight for yous

Top work fellas. have yet to start on the village.......

I take it you have keys for the front gate? if you do, you can get in the cabin, and i was told by razor that there is some sand bags there. not sure how many or exactly where but hope this helps. if not i can try and pop over to the site before i go to the hospital and get them out for you.

i was ion the cabin breifly thismorning, nelso has left some more screws and zip ties in there for ya swampy. just looking for the leads to attach my phone to the comp there may be pics in an hour or so, failing that ill take my camera down tmorrow, good work today gents.

Indeed, was cracking today, really enjoyed it actually hehe.

Am also giving training a miss tomorrow evening so I can come help at the build session instead .

Don't know about anyone else but I'll build all day Saturday too .

Again i fI can get there thats what I plan on doing with a wee bit o shooty in the evening
