Gents in the Gents

Wailing Wall Construction Company are in action every Saturday and Tuesday.

Robin reports on yesterday's action..

Stevie P continued painting the station. Geoff was computerising stores items. Meanwhile Colin, Arthur and I were still soldiering on on the 'Gents' refurb.

Owing to a magnificent effort by Colin, who put in another extra day yesterday, the plumbing is now completed and fully operational. I have been majorly involved in cleaning the whole area, which was filthy despite the much heralded 'Deep Cleaning' allegedly carried out by contractors.
 
Finally, having got the toilets in reasonable shape, Colin set about applying the grout to the newly laid tiled floor. Later, I removed the excess grout, leaving a light grey film which will be polished on Tuesday.
 
We did encounter one small problem, that being we were probably half a mix of grout short otherwise the floor would have been finished.
 
As part of our cleaning regime, much 'thick' bleach was deployed in all the sink plugholes, the urinals and the toilets themselves. We also took the opportunity to bleach the toilet brushes and their containers, clearly these items were equally invisible to the professional cleaners.
 
The few selected souls that have been allowed to enter these hallowed portals, all remarked how clean, bright and much sweeter smelling the facilities are.
