Wed 24th April 2019 - West Wight Sports Centre, Freshwater. GG # 782.

Terry's Photographs.


A wet start to the session.








Tea break.



All looking much tidier as we leave.


I am reliably informed that this is an ermine moth.

With all sorts of high temperature weather records being broken over the Easter period, it just had to come to an end sometime.....but why oh why did it have to be at 10am on Wednesday morning..? It was dry as we drove out to Freshwater but almost exactly as we started work, the heavens opened and everyone got a good drenching. We were tasked to do the "usual" flower bed maintenance that we have been doing for many years now - all those areas to the car park side of the building. Needless to say they were all somewhat overgrown but with a bit of clipping, weeding and raking we soon had them all looking prim and proper again. Numbers were down a little, perhaps some GGmers had the foresight to look at the predicted weather before setting out..! The staff at the centre were kind enough to offer us a dry room for our tea break with tea / coffee and biscuits - a big thank you for that 👍.

Many thanks to Terry for taking the (rather soggy) photographs this week.
