Winter Working

 1st December 2021

No volunteers will attend Broadway on Mondays from December until the new year , looking at the Web Cam on Monday you can see why .

Bit chilly to do much.

So to Wednesday .

A most important Job !

Peter Q and Dave were putting up the decorations in the café . although nobody will use the café until after Christmas and the arrival of the Mince Pie Specials we thought that it was better to be ready.

After that it on to the platform and the drive, and the never ending sweeping up of  needles and debris caused by the high winds and rain.

Dave and Ian on Platform 1

Peter  Q and Peter  K down the footpath and then eventually all on the drive.

Ian got on his knees to clean the Drain out .

After Lunch , something different .

Pat and Ian decided to check out the old cement mixers , to see what were workers and if not what bits could be salvaged .

Out of the four only 1 failed  ! so by then a small group had formed and the poor mixer was being stripped of its useful parts , drum , wheels filters etc.

Nothing left to see here.

 The away team appeared near the end of the day , returning some kit they had used down at Cheltenham . They had been helping contractors relaying the platform slabs 

Terry sent a few pictures of the finished area , all that's left was to spread dry kiln sand when the weather becomes a bit better.
