Demolition continues with another early start this morning but progress is slow. So we thought it would be an opportunity to reflect on where we’ve come from and where we aim to be, from where we are now.

Morning, haven’t posted any demolition pics for over a week that’s because progress has been slow. But I’m told the demo team move out the first week of October - that’s next week 😮 so looking at this morning’s pics they need a good week without delays.

MIXED FEELINGS !!
Joy & Sorrow today at Jack & Ada’s

Today was Lexi’s final Saturday shift she enrols on 4th October at Pirbright, Army Training Centre. Thank you for an incredible four years of dedication! It has been an absolute pleasure watching you grow from a quiet 13-year-old, starting her first Saturday job into the confident and capable 17 year old young woman you are today. We are all very proud of you 👏 👏
