The site hut building going up.   The area for the water tanks almost dug out.   Then it rained.   Then the sides caved in
             
     
However, we managed to get back in.   And get all the steels for the column footings concreted in.   Then we had a lot more rain.   And the track got so bad.
             
     
So we decided that we had better concrete the track from the main road down to the site.   300 yards long.   And all mixed by hand.  
Eventually the tank dried out.
             
     
And we concreted the base.   Built the brick walls.   Plastered them.   And finally the water tanks were finished.
