Empire digging

Night time in the trenches. The other parts of the shop further down the burrow look bright and airy in comparison to the new diggings around us here. The old cess tank was down on the right here. We put in a couple of struts to hold things up today as the old foundations have revealed themselves to be no good at all. The temporary struts are wedged in and they will hold things up while we put in a footing and maybe some better pillars. More diagonals will have to go in to fix things in position. We also had to move one of the wood storage areas today shifting it all outside under sheets, but I did managed to get a little done on the chairs as well. I'll get Sammy to take a daytime view of things tomorrow.
