Gym area is now workable for two people at once. Rest of the cellar is still to be completed.
Rubber flooring is being laid out in cellar for the gym area. Perfect for cushioning those heavy bars and free weights from any big dents. The cellar is almost complete however a few more renovations are need including partly repositioning the stairs to reroute away from the safety meter, as it is an electrical hazard.
Tony for example is clearing out the shed ready to move the tools into his new cellar work room. Lee another one of our members is practicing and gaining valuable culinary skills.

Cellar Update
The Three Musketeers Graham, Tony and Janice brave harsh weather to prepare the allotment for the coming winter.
During the different Lock down stages Janice, Paul, David, Graham and Tony have work hard to prepare the gym room which is now ready for the flooring to go in.
It is going to have rubber flooring which will be comfortable to exercise on. The gym will have a punching bag, running machine, several free weights, step up machine, other small items for keep fit purposes. Trampoline and hula hoops.
Everyone is looking forward to healthier 2021.
Update in the cellar: all the walls have been PVA’d to seal the brick work and now we are considering a nice warm brick colour to go paint the walls. Accomplished by Dave, Paul and Tony the three musketeers.

The men have continued with the cellar, at times it has been quite a task. The ceilings had to have two layers of Fire board, following the Fire Risk Assessment.
Update on the cellar we have now got a smoke alarm and emergency lighting, all electrics complete. And now we are able to focus on filling in the cracks with the fire cement.
