Pony Club Renovations Status report

Went up to the club Monday night.
Clubhouse looks complete (or near).
Obvious that it has commenced in use, as there is a Menu posted to the outside of one of the service windows.

From our perspective, the building is in the same position and access the the fields are unchanged.

However, new locks have been installed (as expected) and our keys (although still opening the front gate) do not seem to open the any of the clubhouse doors (and there are about 5).

There are no glass windows (save 2 small frosted windows that may be toilets ? YEH!

There are roller doors and awning type service windows (like a tuck shop).

There is a new water tank and new electrics.

I also noticed there were lights in the old pit toilets and electric power outlet?
Were they there before?
Perhaps never noticed because always in the dark?
Seems odd if they are going to be closed down.

Anyway, looks good, especially if they allow us to access and use the facilities.

I guess we will find out Saturday.
I am sure Mr Owl has already obtained new keys and operating instructions.

Hope they have a pie Warmer for these cold winter nights.

One thing, I did notice that there were at least two (white) lights on inside the clubhouse.
But they did not bother my observing as there were no open doors or windows to let the light out, just cracks around doors.

Because it was dark, I could not see much in detail on the outdide of the building, like if the included our suggestion for outside power points.

But there is a nice wide covered verandah,

Looks like another night of Camper Kettle calls then.
I may even take a generator if people think it will help (microwave snacks anyone?)

Oh I forgot to mention,
the grass has been cut short
