Its Cold Out there !

 Week Commencing 15th January 2024

2 days of very cold weather !! Enough said.

Monday

4 turned out on a freezing Monday morning , the route to the station car park was blocked by a large crane assisting in the removal of other Pine tree which is past it sell by date .

Top of the drive 1 less tree , the tree was cut up and the resulting chopped wood soon disappeared to the many wood burners !

Over on platform 2 , Neal, John and Jo were beavering away , filling the second truck with spoil from the new footings.

Meanwhile a number of small jobs were in hand in the station buildings , Brian refixing the light fitting in the Kitchen , which had come loose !

Billy had a test run , with its new attachment on the drive way , cleaning up the debris from the area of the removed tree. 

Dave was working on waste bin number 2.

Wednesday

Another stay in bed day but 5 turned up .

Ian and Peter decided to light the fire , Bad Idea . There was no wind but the smoke headed over to the residential area .Must have been the overly damp vegetation 

It was decided to extinguish it  , just at Pat turned up with 2 bags of debris .

Dave got a hand from Peter and Ian cutting shaped wood for the bins.

Pat had a go breaking down an old tree stump. and Brian was in the Station Masters office redecorating the area where the Clock had been.

The lads over on platform 2 looked to have 2/3 rds. of the footing done , and were filling up truck number 3 with the spoil.
