right guys, we are all good to go. the council have started making the signs, so its time to do all the ground work before they drop off the logs and rocks.

we need to start a pot for tools. we need a shovel each (you provide) a couple of mattocks, a pick and of course barrows. josh can get us all we need, but we need to pay him. i think about 20 quid each into the pot (ill look after it and get the tools ordered) and then its flat out work over the winter.

im organising a dig day this weekend on saturday (6th) so bring a shovel as we need to fix what we already built up the top end and start carving out the ground for the rest of the trail.

10am start up at the trail, if you want to lend a hand and dont know where it is pm me and ill give you directions or arrange to meet at keighley station.

remember bring a spade.

more info to come on the build..............

is a mini digger a possibility or is the terrain not suitable?

ah cool, borrow josh's or hire one? Ours would be a bit big for the job I'd have thought. If you need a operator, just let me know Wink have worked on 55 tonne excavators before
