Thank you to those who have volunteered to help tidy up the park. The weather looks like it will be perfect .
Bob will probably be there at the crack of dawn but he says 9am start will be good. It should only take an hour or so to fill the trailer. Then we'll have a snack and a chat as usual.
There's been no mention of coffee and cake this time, but I'll bring the usual slices. Bring a hat, gloves and water bottle.
Cheers
Rose
