Another week,

Oops!

Sometimes it must seem that I may be trying to rush things, ----Another wet Bank Holiday does concentrate the mind, as to why we are pushing to complete the repair so quickly. However tomorrow is Tuesday and people should be back at work, another short week but hopefully we managed to accomplish a lot before the Friday Frenzy of the Holiday Weekend set in. Essentially, normally the paperwork is completed in the course of about 6 weeks, we tried for 2!! So; OK maybe 3 then? Onwards and Upwards.

We had a visiting Choir from Sweden here on Saturday ---- wonderful sound, even in our Hall , (which does have its own very good acoustic).

As it was a relatively still and calm night we took them up the back stairs to visit the Gallery and of course what do singers do when they get there? Sing of course!

Impromptu performances, and as we had learned earlier, they were typical Swedish Folk Music. but wonderful to hear, and they were impressed with both the space and the sound.


Let's all look forward to a return visit.

    Yes, they were super - and the singing was tops as well! Let's hope they come back and get a full house - in what everyone except JSD is happy to call the sanctuary.

    As always, all strength to your arm.

Staircase to Heaven

A friend mentioned The Scaffold's Greatest Hits, the musical analogy continues. Even more Scaffold has arrived. and when I visited on Thursday the men were very busy constructing a ----- Staircase to Heaven! No kidding, the front scaffolding towers are not tied in to the walls so the strengthening and buttressing supports have meant that the Contractors are able to build a Staircase and not just use ladders. Very secure it looks too, So eventually the Fabric Team will don their PPE and scale the heights. The Structural Engineer has also inspected and has declared that he is very happy with the Works Progress. Today the Concrete arrives which will be poured into the new big hole, which will form the foundation for Truss 3 N. Gosh it's all go this week.

August Garden Parties

At KH there has been a tradition of having a Garden Party (or parties!) to allow members and friends to come together at the appropriate time to carry out essential works in the garden grounds. Yesterday was one of those days, and the rain did stop and the sun did come out! Firstly, many thanks to those who turned out and contributed their time and energy, and special thanks to Ann Shill for the yummy sandwiches. Our youngest labourer took great delight in sowing the seeds of the Wildflower Meadow, showing great interest in the different sizes and colours of seed, while Mum raked and prepared the ground! Office-bound workers enjoyed their blisters (I hope) proof of their hard work - and a chance for my new First Aid Kit to be used. And what was very pleasant was being able to actually do a little proper gardening apart from just the hard work of cutting grass and hedges! New gardeners were surprised at just how extensive the grounds actually are. Alas; because of Parked c...
