A good morning's work

Before


After

Eight people completely emptied our tool box container and spread all the tools and materials around the site. Gradually we worked through what was worth keeping and what should be discarded. We marked Habitat for Humanity tools (and a few other fingers and things) with a flourescent green squirt of paint and carefully replaced everything in the container. Now remember this. The tools are stored on the right hand side shelves and the materials (nails, paint, tiles etc. ) stashed on the left hand shelves. Now if you mess the container up you may well have eight people jump on you! It was good to catch up on just what we had and sometimes we heard Martin say, "I didn't know we had those!" or "We needed that!" A scream of delight indicated that Jane had found her specially named pencil! We enjoyed the sunny day. It was good to be doing some "Habitating" together again. There is still rubbish to clear, but we were all done and on our way by lunch time. Thank you to all who could make it. The next session will be...?.. watch this space!
