Yesterday,the Barbados Advocate vis- ited the BDF base to witness the mili- tary officials at work as they disman- tled donated shipping pallets to create high-quality lounge tables, coffee chairs, and side tables. The project, which is called “Dump to Table” is a part of the refurbishment exercise in BDF’s mess room area. Some of the materials from the shipping pallets are being used to spruce up a lounge area, which will be known as “Laddie’s Bar”. BDF’s Sergeant Peter Gilkes ex- plained that the project, which was started just before the pandemic, will be completed in time for Christmas. He added that the officers took a break due to the COVID-19 measures, but at this moment the project is 95 per cent com- pleted. From right: Sergeant Peter Gilkes discusses some of the remarkable characteristics of a recently completed coffee table made from old shipping pallets with his colleagues.

New Zealand skittled Scotland out for 142 after putting them into bat, effectively ensuring there would be no repeat of Monday’s match when Ireland, another non-Test nation, downed the West Indies.
