Work Party: Tuesday 13th February 2024
|
Oh dear – a very wet morning at Ynysmeudwy. The rain fell hard and constant but the gang was soon hard at work. The major task was to clear fly tipping – a huge pile of fencing, conifer branches and assorted rubbish. Chris did a grand job revealing the information panel. The last photo shows a job well done. |

Gordon cut down a dead tree that the rest of the vols dragged to one side. |

Tea was taken in the relative shelter of Bridge 9. Mercifully, nobody toppled into the cut! Compliments to Ronnie for the sweet and savoury treats. |

The rain was so bad that we decided to draw stumps after tea. We managed to achieve a lot but it was too wet to carry on. |
