    Very very happy to see all in safety harnesses whilst doing the roof. Very glad Nick is keeping everyone safe whilst on the job. Huge relief for me. So very exciting watching the roof be put into place - can’t wait to see what you do with the interiors woohoo. Congratulations, well done for everything the team has achieved so quickly

    Hi Dan. Its good that Brian is as comfortable as Nick on the ropes. I like the idea of you in charge of cutting up the boards and getting it up to the guys. Makes sense to have the right guy to the right task. Looking great. And having the water thingamigjiggies installed is also a great achievement.

    Dan are you okay? We all get worried when your normal daily video is not posted.
