Painting outside begins again - The Apprentice Groundsman

Today, we started painting outside again. Lovely day to do so. Dry, warm and a little breeze.

Yesterday, we obtained some white masonary paint and today we opened it and started on the jobs that need doing during the next few months.

The team today painted the door frame and also the ceiling above on the Main Stand entrance. This means we have pretty well completed all the painting on the Main Stand

We also begn work on the food kiosk at the Cut Throat Lane end. If the weather keeps fine next week we will paint the metal work and woodwork on the building.

Won't be at the ground tomorrow. Friday we will be preparing for the match. Fingers crossed the Beast from the East 2 will miss us.

Frank and Margaret Pearson this week did a great job cleaning up the South Stand seats ready for Saturday.

On Friday, some of the jobs will be to get all the benches from around the ground back to their proper positions, moving all the bins into places around the ground, recording the turnstile volumes, ensuring the stairs are clear of any rubbish, getting all the public areas ready in the Main Stand.
