We also after removing the rockery moved the Marquee over to give me the room to do the concreting and give me the area of the new kit room ready to work out... it took some moving
More concrete patches done... Drako area
Moved over...
As you can likely see from the last photo... dust sheets in the pond as STILL no water in, this was likely a bad decision...

So after a looooooooong and back breaking day I got in for my tea, them as the evening progressed rain started to come down very heavily and VERY strong winds started to lift the Marquee...
So at 10pm I had to go out, totally re-jig the blocks holding down the bottom of the tent... as the wind was even moving them off the floor !!
I also had to check the pond for sharp spots and remove them quick so I could get the hose in the pond.
Thankfully the granite boulders that were recovered from the rockery had a great use and I added them to the concrete blocks I had re-jigged to put more downward pressure on the bars...
Photos taken this morning as wasn't feeling it last night hahahaa
THANKFULLY they held very firm and didn't budge an inch
AND... I got 6 to 8" of WATER IN THE POND !!

I also decided to get a coat of paint on the blade fill-in/backboard, which then made me get a coat of pain on the back walls to tidy them up before I start affixing pipes and cables to it, also to help keep dust down etc... also black up to the sides of the skimmer blockwork so all will appear black from the pond side...
I also did some tiling to the feature wall edges, which has started to finish it off nicely I think
