1979


Spent a good two hours in the cellar this morning creating mesh guards from cut sections of roll.

Duel

 Myself, Dave and Tanya went to Crimble Clough and reclaimed several hundred stakes for future use. Still quite a few in the field.

Then I came home and cut 100 mesh guards from a big roll.

Chameleon

Geoff striding purposefully

Back to Old Mount Road. We were; myself, Geoff, Dave, Tanya, Philip, Jess, Michael, Bill, Margaret, Stephen, Steve, Dianne, Philip, Jack, and Paul.

We planted 350 hawthorn, 25 elder, 25 dog rose, 50 guelder, and 25 blackthorn.

Quite a long mornings work, but ultimately satisfying.

Jess saved my bacon with a bottle of water, it was warm work running around on that hillside,  and I was unprepared.


No song connection this week. Just good music.

Away from the numbers

 

Old Mount Road, Marsden. Starting a long mixed hedgerow. We were; myself, Dave, Philip, Dianne, Philip, Michael, Jon,  Hap, and Ben. We put in 500 plants - 350 hawthorn, 50 hazel, 50 blackthorn, 25 guelder, 25 dog rose.

Snow lay round about.
