Not to be pessimistic but if its just one machine it may not constitute a start. When they turn up with ste cabins and lots of diggers then we can celebrate.

Site cabins are there, they are in the farm yard as I delivered red diesel to them on Monday.

Yes - About 20 thousand tonnes. Not much really and shouldn't take long to extract.

You may be closer to the truth than you think, this may be the archeology / environmental sampling work thats going on at the moment. Lets hope there are no dead Kings down there.

Good news though - starting to believe we may actually get a new ground!!

Drove by it about 2.30. Loads of trenches dotted about.
There was no digging machines on site though.
