The New Media Centre

is coming along slowly but surely. The guys are doing a good job as far as I can tell, that’s the main thing.

After all the form work is up it is braced, concrete poured and let set for seven days.

Then the fill is added to the top of form work, compacted as she goes.

Next footings are dug out in the centre of building, plus for the archives room and lift well. Re bar and mesh is added, concrete poured, presto we are ready for the construction phase.

I was expecting the NG to be putting on a power point presentation [whatever the hell a PPP is] as a follow up of the hearings held last year on Alcohol and Drug Abuse in the region.
On the 4th of this month it was announced that this PPP would be held in the board room of NG. I called NG yesterday to see what time it would be, I was told that the PPP has been postponed, most likely to some time later this month.
No word, that I came across, in the public air waves about the changes. The more things change the more they stay the same, eh? Or is that get worse? debatable IMO.
