There is no radio on-site so the only music people get to hear is the tune that slips its way past our internal censor and ends up getting sung. 'Don't stop the carnival' was the most up-to-date song Steve has sung yet. Stevie (the plumbing contractor - who has been in finishing off the central heating installation to 93 and 99) was caught doing some human beatboxing (Snap's 'I've got the power'). Like I said, we need a radio. Thursday British Gas achieve what EDF had repeatedly failed to do and get the power on in two flats on the middle floor. Was this a difficult task? No - they just had to inspect the installation, approve it and fit the main fuses. Now the only problem remains the gas supply - while the building was scheduled for demolition new gas piping was fitted on the outside of the building but in 3 of the flats on the middle floor the piping was never brought inside the property and no new gas meters were fitted. This means we will have to pay National Grid to drill through the walls in 3 properties - the waiting time for this is about 6 weeks.
On the plus side (for me) we are into the tiling phase, Pat has been busy fitting the kitchens in 97 and 95 after Steve and a number of the trainees (Edward in the hoto above) fitted the sinks in them. These look like being the first flats we will be completing. David Sanchez has been in a lot (helping to install the bath in 97). Darryl and Steve are getting on with the decorating in them.
