Everything is one big Christmas tree

Cath contemplates her Christmas tree

Myself, Cath, Geoff, Dave and Stephen spent the morning planting 75 hawthorn and 50 blackthorn. 

We also planted 7 Christmas tree that the landowner had acquired. Not our usual thing, but fun.

No problem

As a dry but breezy alternative to a predicted windy and rainy Saturday myself, Geoff, Dave and Stephen did some work at Linfit - lots of other people being unavailable due to seasonal commitments.

We planted 145 hawthorn, 25 field maple and 25 dog rose.

Geoff noted the recent passing of Benjamin Zephaniah, so named this stretch of hedge after him.
