Gazza in the thick of it.


I must have got a little excited in the first week and came down with a virus that put me in bed for two days with the sweats and shivers. The Maridian boys Andy and Gazza came to the rescue to fill the 2nd skip in the history of The Hive.

Rumour has it, twas filled in 45mins…those boyz…there up for hire if anyone is interested?

Once the storm died down Gazza and Josh gave the furnaces some attention, and set up the gantry with a block and tackle, a knot specialty had the used cracked pot secure and the 500kg hoist pulled her from entrapment to a new world order, the depressed carcass once again becoming a beautiful form and object in itself.
