Bus Stop Jug Wobbly
June 01, 2015, 04:40:00 pm
Grabbed a late evening session in the pass yesterday and noticed the starting block of Bus Stop is very wobbly and will probably part company with the boulder soon unless it sees some attention.

Anyone know a suitable local?

Hey Chris. I'm guessing you were one of the two lads from Sheffield there yesterday evening? Doylo has done a bit in the cave before and maybe pillbox but they are a bit closer to home. I'll give him a shout and see if he has anything suitable to reinforce the crucial jug!

I think it would require some sort of mix and then pinning in with a scaffold pole for a few hours until it sets/bonds? Seemed to work well with the artist formerly known as the wobbly jug in sellas.

Out of my jurisdiction  ;) It may need pulling off in order to glue it back on properly. Gluing in place only really works when you can get stuff behind the hold. I've got a little job to do in the Cave too.

Yep :wave:, I was the tall good looking one as opposed to the short long haired one  ;)

It would be a shame if it went as I'm guessing it would scupper Bus Stop & Mr. Fantastic

Not sure if this has been noted recently but was at Cromlech last night and noticed that the jug is wobbly again (just a little bit for the moment). Can't remember exactly where it came loose last time, so maybe someone who can remember can check it out in the near future?
