The Week before Christmas

Week Commencing 18th December


Just the 2 of us on Monday , Peter K and myself , the weather was inclement so we both took to sheltering out of the rain.

Peter was under the Station canopy applying knotting solution to the tongue and grooved boards  that are being used for making the Cheltenham rubbish bins.



Whilst I was down in the container, cutting lengths of wood for the frames.



Wednesday


Up to 5 today , Brian , Pat and Ian joined us for a while


Pat was having a go at removing an old tree stump , Brian was applying Varnish to another Bench in the warmth of the ladies toilet. Ian was in the Broadway Goods Shed sorting out new donations.


Outside Peter was persevering with the Knotting.

And down at the other end, I was cutting the Knotted planks into lengths for the front , rear and sides .



Before we left the Running in board was put in the Ladies to dry out , ready for refurbishment when  we return,

After lunch we sort of said our Christmas wishes and drifted away , end of another year at Broadway Station !

May wishes you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 

Dave

  2. Been watching through the camera. A lot of hard working orange men and skilful digger operator. Take care with the loaded wheel barrow near the platform edge (that sounds like a BR notice). Happy New Year, give a wave to the camera !
