There are now only 12 weeks left on the original contract timetable , plus any delays. The current 3 weeks delay may be caught up , which means we have a realistic chance of a finish in March 2008.
Good progress is being made with the lime wash, the scaffolding will be down next week, at the upper windows will be serviced as good ventilation in the building will be necessary once the heating goes on. Trinity Glass have said they will finish the stained glass this week.
We have met with IBC representatives and the management of the grounds is in hand. I am also making provision for one final touch to the project by having the gates painted, The floor has been finished in the workshop and has been viewed by Carters. The stage is being partly constructed in the joinery workshop, and will be on site in January. The china ware for the toilets will be on site in January. The south Porch is all arranged, the new service connections are booked.
The Auditorium chairs will be ordered before Christmas, and the good quality music stands delivery arranged 1st week march.
The programme for the opening events will be confirmed by Bernard and Vic during January.
The new occupants of St Clements the Evangelical church have asked to hold an Easter service on 23 March, which we hope to accommodate.
I am very pleased with the progress of the project, its all looking good.
