Working Weekend

A big thank-you to all who turned up to help out with the multitude of jobs over the weekend, quite a few new and younger faces which is a real pleasure to see.  We hope you had some fun despite the weather.  It was Colin's turn on the pictures, many thanks

The screener was in action and continued on it's quest to be fed .  It's like the plant in Little Shop of Horrors as it continually needs filling up and, despite the rain, it performed as intended, so well done to those who have carried out the repairs and upgrades. We look forward to a dry weekend to really put it through it's paces.

Work by the various contractors has carried on around the bridge.  The gabions are advancing and the cutting sides will be contoured to the final shape.  The first picture also shows off the slab over the sewer in all it's glory with the line of gabions to the left, this looking south towards Weston.

The second picture shows the ground conditions after the recent heavy rain and it's pleasing to note no pool of water under the bridge, showing that the recently installed drains are performing as intended.  The bridge is receiving some attention whilst access is easier.
A special mention to Dave and family who kept the volunteers supplied with food and drink over the weekend.

Until next time
