Turning the Hut into a palace!

The Hut received more attention recently when Peter Howe, Dave Lotty and Kev Curby spent two days on upgrading work.  It was a chilly work detail as Friday afternoon brought a short shower of hail which  covered everything with a white layer and looked just like a snow fall. The air temperature was so low that the cover remained until well after the sun came up the next morning.

The weekend’s work included sealing off the fireplaces, removing the old sink and laying replacement carpet in one of the bedrooms, installing smoke alarm detectors in the hall and making a new manhole cover for the ceiling in the hall. In the kitchen, an additional cupboard for saucepans has been put beside the stove and a fire extinguisher next to the doorway. As well as improving safety this work will make the Hut a much more pleasant place to overnight.
