Week Commencing 6th July 2026
Monday
Hot
Wednesday
Even Hotter !
Four of us around on Monday , some managed it into the afternoon , it was warm .
A badger had been around on the platform 1 bank looking for a snack in the old tree stump !
Chris wont find the badger in that pipe! there is no water for 50 yards but the old mess hut had a sink which has long since been taken out but water is still nearby so he had a go ta fitting a tap .
The 3 of us headed down to the embankment to give it a tidy up .
Weeds and wild flowers are a growing faster than we can cope with .
Wednesday
Up to 5 at least till lunch time when the heat got too much for some.
Takes awhile to water the flowers , some like the creeping Jenny done seam to need any watering !
Some flowers in the pots haven't survived the heat , and Kevin had a some spares which he swapped .
Chris finished off the 2 A boards , just ready to be sign written maybe ?
Neal was on his own moving bricks off the platform 2 , it was back to the old days of brick moving for some ! move this pile of bricks 2 foot to that pallet , just like we used to do.
Over on platform 2 , drainage for the stairs has been put in and the 3 Stanchions for the canopy have been erected.
Locomotives on duty today were the Black 5 and 3850 .
It was with great sadness to hear of the passing away of Margaret , a Wednesday stalwart in our shed for may years , our condolences to her partner and family .
