shifting the first apartment block - made from 3/4" hardwood ply, it is VERY HEAVY!
fitting the doors - and early testing by Claudia
preparing a level brick base
Lifting the second apartment block down to Burrow Court Estate
Which bit goes where?
The first apartment block in situ...
... and now occupied by an excited Tansy and her young family

above and below: the bunnies new 'apartments' (12)
Burrow Court is fitted with 3 striplights, 2 fly zappers, a 'baby listening' device, nightlight on a timer, a security system and 5 electric fans for use in hot weather - when the buns tend to be returned to hutches rather than wilt in our south-facing, sun-trap garden.
September 2005 - a few modifications....
