Not a great number of workers out today, maybe because of holidays and school half-term. Work started on clearing the many doc weeds from the B&B area, path edges were cleared of nettles and brambles. Several of the men worked on replacing rotten boards at the pond's dipping platform, a new cross joist had to be fitted as well, these will be treated with preservative next week. Work on the sump in the ditch was delayed again because of standing water, Colin T started digging a ditch to try and drain the water away.
With coffee toady we had lovely cakes and sausage rolls from Peter & Marion.
David thanked Peter & Marion for the cakes and the listed the work achieved today.
