Our tireless Friends of the Hut have given Belanglo House a thorough going over at the weekend.

A massive thanks to Doug and Keith Jay, Dave Lotty, Kevin Curby and Peter Howe - who all practised safe distancing while doing a mountain of work.

The new water tank is programmed for delivery just after Easter.

Peter reports some of the projects accomplished were:

* Completed the excavation for the proposed Water Tank by all. One and a half tonnes of crushed metal was delivered and compacted for the base.

* Cleared the drain blockage from the bathroom sink - the less said about this task the better! A new "S" Bend replaced the original bend and a new three-way union installed to join the existing pipes together.

* New duck boards were installed on the bathroom floor. A 12m trench was dug to extend the drain from the bathroom and new pipe
installed.

* A wire screen was installed in front of the woodshed. Hopefully this will deter people who have been helping themselves to the supplies.

* Daffodil bulbs excavated from the the area for the new tank have been planted in front of the outhouse. This should look nice in the in the coming months.
