We have just started digging to install the second half of the ground loops and the spoil heap is pretty impressive.  The top of the spoil heap is a great place to get a view of the overall state of the building work.  The 3D image below, although taken from a slight different perspective, shows what the building will look like when finished.

The concrete slab is due to be poured on Tuesday – the concrete pump required to pour the concrete has broken down, but has now been booked for Tuesday.

In the meantime, working is progressing on installing the second half (the last 1000m of pipe) of the ground loops.

This is the current view from the top of the spoil heap.  The concrete slab for the new extension is due to be laid next Tuesday.
