Once again Colin has stepped up and volunteered to cut and trim the Scout's grass once again. Volunteers needed to give him a hand to rake up the cuttings please. There are also some thistles there that need cutting out, so anyone with a high pain threshold in their hands is welcome to pull them out, or they could wear gloves, of course...
|
It's that time of year again and we need to do a stock-take of what we've got and also start to chop up some more.
|
We will still run a workbench down one side of the box, but the first priority is to de-clutter the interior. Nothing can happen till we get the interior sorted and tidied.
|
If Keith is around, you'll be in charge of the bonfire Keith. There's a fair bit of rubbish to be got rid of. Weather permitting we'll have a fire.
|
Remember, our Shed's AGM is next Friday the 20th.
