Hades 2

Dreek!

All this rain does make for some nice colours.

Above Marsden again, planting another 150 horse friendly trees and shrubs.

We were myself, Dave (pictured), Cath, Tanya, Geoff, Jim, Dan, Adam, Dianne, Stephen, Hap, Matthew, Chayley, Jess, Paul,  Philip, and Ben. 

Hap and Cath brought chocolate cake and mince pies respectively. Both excellent.

Dave's new foul weather smock was admired.

Save me (Redbrook 2)

Jess looking simultaneously confused yet dynamic 

Interesting morning, for me and Ptol in particular. He and I separately tried to convince the others of the health benefits of cold water plunges - by falling waist deep into a ditch of muddy freezing water. We both went home to get dry and warm. I'm very grateful to Adam for pulling me out. 

Anyway, another 200+ shrubs and trees were planted by; myself, Philip, Dianne, Adam, Dan, Peter, Stephen, Steve, Dave, Geoff, Sam and Ptol, Ali, Tanya, Jim, and Jess. 

A murky morning.
