We built this city on rock and roll...

It is early in the morning in at least one time zone.

A giant flatpack hut has been set out ready for the Scouts and helpers to help assemble*, barn raising style.

Able to lift stuff? Able to hold stuff while it is attacked with a nailgun? Able to hold a paintbrush? Able to make cold drinks and bring them to the sweaty builders? There is a role for you!

Once the building is up, they can start on the rest of the playground, but one thing at a time.

There's also a gramophone in one corner of the site, playing some suitably inspirational barn-raising music.

[*Assisting in completion in any way will earn your Scout a Construction badge.

OOC: Have at, party post style :)]

"If you want to." Jay nods. "The three webs will be at different heights and skill levels so you can climb which ever one you feel comfortable climbing."

Fry nods, making a note that Jay is an adult and therefore this counts as permission.

"Will any of the playthings go round and round?" he asks.

"Not any of the ones I've designed so far but if you want something that spins, I'm pretty sure I could build it."

"It had a big wheel." Fry says, remembering one he saw at the playground near his house.

He doesn't get to go there as often as he'd like, in case he runs into the kid half a foot taller than him that he beat up once.

Jay pulls a palm pilot from his back pocket and starts searching. "Something like this?"

"No, too bright." Fry says.

"It's on a big string."

"Not sure I know what you mean, Fry. But you could take a photo of it the next time you're there and show me? I can build from a photo. Or can you draw it for me?"

"I can't go there at the moment because of Ryan." Fry says. "I can draw it."

He gets out one of his little notebooks and draws something that looks like a big black thick circle with a string on it.

"Oh, I understand. Yeah, I can build one of those for you, no worries."
