November 27th Further work on Mt. Harriet

Today as poor Tony had a cold it was left to Matt, Colin and I to continue working on the Mount Harriet layout. It was incredibly windy today so I didn't take any of the chaps along to photograph as they wouldn't have been able to stand even with support.

We dug some Turf from elsewhere on the site and laid it out on top of the soil previously laid.

The started to build up the back to form the mount.

Need to further build up and then cover it with more turf.

20/11/2011 Pebble Island and Mt. Harriet

It's been a while since any work was done but today Tony, Matt with Colin and Mick (from the Museum) continued on the smaller two dioramas.

However before that here is how the grass has taken hold on the hill of the Goose Green layout.

Anyone got a 1/6th scale lawnmower as we may need it.

So today we carried on by adding rubble to the Mt. Harriet layout

Then we dug out some more soil from elsewhere on site to cover the rubble

Then once that was done we started to put down the turf we had dug up to get to the soil.

We will continue to build up the turf on both layouts and add a pond liner to the pebble island to take the water.
Behind the scenes Tony is adapting an HM Forces Harrier and is building part of a Pucara for the Pebble Island SAS/SBS attack.
Hope to meet up again next Sunday to carry on.
