The Annual Working B

The Annual Working Bee is rolling around. We will stage it the day after grading (SUNDAY the 14th December). Everyone is invited to join in the fun. We will lift the mats, scrub then down, water blast the suds off an leave them to dry. Also a general (late) Spring clean of all surfaces. Maybe some painting and construction and could be a bit of drilling - we shall see who turns up for the morning.
At 12noon - all work will ceaase and we will eat the leftovers from the End-Of-Year celebration the night before as well as some sausages and patties, and burgers etc.

More information will follow (charges etc), but for now, all I have planned is the dates.
