Jon had no trouble fitting in with the complex local fashion trends for the new season.

This is the state that Jon left the site in in 2005, so more or less the state that he started from when he first arrived this year. By the time I got there, the trenches around the foundations were all filled in (Jon tells me he did this with a dessert spoon), which makes the place look even less impressive... each of those foundations is six feet tall, contains around a cubic metre of concrete and weighs several tonnes, but once the earth has been refilled around them they look like pebbles.

Foundations are basically rubbish. They take ages to build, involve rather too close association with an awful lot of mud, and end up looking diminutive and unimpressive. Nobody should ever bother with them again.
