(nothing but) flowers

Best time of year for heather flowers. Bit of rain would make the colours pop though.

Back to Scout for more plastic gathering. We were; myself, Paul, Geoff, Tanya, Kayleigh, Baljit, Hap, Dave and Stephen. Pictures by Tanya. It was pretty hot.

Barbwire

Up to Scout, Marsden, this week. For some tidying and material reclamation. Met the new owner. We were: myself, Geoff, Paul, Jess, Philip, Steve, and Dave. 

I spent the morning crawling around in a micro environment of thorns, barbwire, hawthorn and dogrose. 

Hence, a classic from Nora Dean...

Alberto Balsam

Hap, some stakes, and some decimated Balsam

Back to Scammonden, for the last time for a while? We were: Hap, Geoff, Dave, Tanya, Kayleigh, Cath, Matthew, and myself.

Lots of Balsam got bashed, and some stakes and guards reclaimed.

One fine morning

Geoff and me discouraging the balsam

More reclamation and balsam bashing at Scammonden. We were: myself, Geoff, Tanya, Duncan and Harvey the dog, Peter, Michael, Dave and Matthew. And an honourable mention to Kayleigh, who was sabotaged.
