Sunday 5th January
The morning of Sunday offered a brief gap in the rain that seems to have been falling continually since before Christmas. James and I used 3 hours of dry weather to do some surveying to check work undertaken to date and to set out four posts to mark the corners of the clubhouse. Meanwhile Colin did some maintenance in the wild flower meadow - a final cut of the grass before spring.
