Catch the little B....R !

Wednesday 16th January

There were 10 of us today on and around the Station today and one or two who should not have been there.but more of that later.

The most technical job of the day was done by Bob , with a little help from Mike ? was the commencement of the tiling of the Kitchen above the work tops.


There was a  lot of cutting to be done around the sockets made for a slow and steady job, but at the end of the day two opposite walls were complete. Just needs a bit of Grouting to round them off.



It will soon be time to say farewell, to what used to be our cement hut ! Later this week its due to start a new life down at Hayles Abbey Halt as their storage hut. Pat and Vic had the task of emptying and relocating of what was once stored in there.


Vic caught in the act of hiding stuff in no 1 container !


Elsewhere Pete and Brian carried on with the construction of the storage cupboard .















Whilst Dave gave the running in board and other parts more coats of paint.










To the south Line side Clearance were at it again , you can always spot them by the billowing smoke.

Out the front the car park was coming along , new drainage had been laid out , and the old top coat had removed.


To the story in the title .

This morning Julie came to open the shop to sort the every grateful piles of donations , when she found evidence of a visit from one or two little rodents . Mice being what they do best  like to nibble . luckily mostly it was the odd stuff on the floor. and not the books on the shelves. Holes were blocked all around the hut by Dave and Brian, and at least 4 rodents traps were put out to catch it or them . Watch this space.

  1. A few years ago, we had a mouse or two get into our loft, so a modern trap was deployed (non-lethal) & baited with chocolate, or peanut butter, both of which they cannot resist. Contents of trap removed to nearby fields & let go with a stern warning not to return!
