Time to grab your tools of choice....
As you can see..this area was well overgrown!
Team GG does battle with the bramble.
A bit of "light pruning" 😊
Disposing of the arisings.
Looking good.
Tea and (wonderful) cakes.
A final shot - showing a job well done.
It has been a while since we have visited this venue but....with good weather forecasted I think it would be fair to say that Team GG were looking forward to getting back here. Island Roads confused the issue somewhat by rather poor temporary road signs - which would have you going around in circles unless you chose to ignore them 😏. The task was simple - "just clear that area over there" - that is the sort of instruction Team GG totally understand. Obviously great care was taken as we started to uncover grown-in grave stones and a light-footed approach was need to avoid stepping on the numerous spring flowers that were starting to show through. Rather than try and explain what we did, I refer you to the "start and finish" photographs above - what an amazing difference...! Tea break was taken inside the church (muddy boots OFF) where we were invited to enjoy a wide variety of yummy cakes with our tea and coffee - thank you ladies. One of our number was celebrating a recent birthday so we also had a wonderful birthday cake to munch our way through. I am surprised that anyone was able to walk, let alone do any work, after the tea break session 😊
Many thanks to Terry for his photographs, to the ladies for the cakes...and to Gwen for the wonderful birthday cake.
