I Cannot Wait Until Tomorrow!!!

Okay, call me a geek, but I have come into work on a Sunday - not just to do a blog update because I can do that from home, but because I have a bit of a clash of timing!!
Mondays are a very busy day in my job, there are a number of 'must do's' and I have come in to get the biggest one out of the way so that I have some spare time on my hands in the morning!
What's that got to do with this blog or Littleport I hear you ask?  Glad you did - tomorrow a very major and essential part of the construction process will be happening - and it is something I do not want to miss...
Neither will you by the way - I will be making a video of it to upload - there have been pictures taken of it happening at other sites we have built, but as for myself I have never had the opportunity to see it happen first hand.
So what actually is it you ask? Well I will give you a clue - a petrol station would not be able to operate without this - other than that - you will just have to come back tomorrow and find out - won't you!!
In the meantime here is the current view of the site.

Don't forget to check in tomorrow to find out what is so exciting!!

Par for the Course?

Okay, okay the puns on the titles are getting a bit thin I know, but this is just so exciting, as each time I go down to the site something has changed.

Several changes today, the canopy posts are in and bricks are now going down too.

Having had a chat with Ops Manager Paul Deary today, I have been asked to be on standby with video recording equipment in the next couple of weeks, so you should be ready to see an embedded video on this blog in the not too distant future.

At his suggestion, we will also be having a facebook page up by the end of the week.  So once again lots going on behind the scenes too.

I will sign off now with a view from my usual perch, showing the changes to date, though finding my perch lately has not been so easy as the post I used to find my place has been removed...

Once again I find myself saying that as it is a building site, I should have realised that this is also par for the course.

Keep watching...

A Very Structured Affair!

I also thought about using 'You've been Framed' as this posts title - but the end result is the same - take a look at this!

It is so nice to see some form appear - it the shape of things to come - the initial structure of the store.
Things are definitely coming alomg nicely!

Speak soon!

Strong Foundations...

All projects need a strong foundation, and a petrol station is no different, as you can see in this picture.  Very different to a week ago !!

I am still compiling my photos for a time lapse project of the site - and I am confident that it will not be too long before I will have enough to give you all a sneak preview of things so far...  Watch this space on that one.

There still may be a lot to do, but there has been lots going on, I am sure that there will be some major changes on the site very soon, so look out for the picture special when that comes too.

Here Comes Week Two

What a difference a week makes!
This is the scene as we go into week two - looks more like a building site - doesn't it.  I cannot wait to come home this evening and get a look at how things are after today - we are really moving forward now!
Exciting stuff - isn't it!
