If there was an aerial photo I presume that it would say FTH on the pitch.

Possibly distorted image to hide any other work being carried on in the background, ie tv studio and police box removal

I only said I thought that was what they were covering them Hughesie :) Looking again at my pictures you are correct the sprinklers don't have buckets and aren't even covered.

 

The buckets are on areas next with nothing but sand you can see the marker sticks with no buckets. The buckets are possibly only there to stop people driving over the marker sticks.

 

Another couple of bucketless pictures for fun :)

We'll be getting daily updates of the grass literally growing next!

 

If the seeding is happening on Sunday, and with favourable weather forecast, I'd guess the grass would be around 2-3cm ready for cutting within 2-3 weeks. The synthetic strands to make it a hybrid can be installed in a week if I recall right.

Anyone on picture duty? 

 

I'm not, but a wild stab in the dark is going for some sand and a few digger machines.

 

Am I Mystic Meg or what? :laugh:

It seems the pitch isn't going to be 3 foot higher than last season. 

 

Definately slopes up a bit.. not 3 foot right enough..

Would be great if our first few games are at Murrayfield.  Shambles at Yamland threads would abound on .pilrig and they are great.

Cheers for the pictures mate, they’re great. Just shows how much the pitch has been raised. It’s clear that what used to be a flat run off track between stand and pitch now has a slight slope from pitch side down towards the stands. I like the look of that??

Weather stays like this. The grass will grow no problem!

 

 

Only true Jambos can say it is exciting to watch grass growing...

No submarine? Not sure I'm confident of her leadership skills in that case.
