We have had the generator delivered at the exact same time we had gas cylinders delivered and a bit later on, half of our racks were delivered. We have had a lot of progess with our fibre connectivity, we should have that live very shortly. We have had people splicing today with the fibre. We also had the office people in today who continued their work on the development of the office partitions upstairs, they haven’t been able to access the site recently due to weather restrictions. Today, we had one of our newly delivered network cameras configured which you can see below along with plenty of other pictures from todays events.
