Wed 30th May 2007 - Brading Down.

A hardy few turned up for ragwort pulling on Brading Down this week. Now either Ray is on holiday or he hasn't been keeping up with his prayers to the sun god - as it sure was WET....! After a short discussion we decided to give it a go (see the picture above) but the weather steadily worsened with strong winds and driving rain. We managed about an hour and a half (dedication in the extreme - blog writer's note...!) but by then the weather was so atrocious that we decided to call it a day. That must be the first time in living memory that we "abandoned ship" - let's hope for better weather next week down at East Cowes.

Thanks to Carrie (once again) for the picture and report.
