The rain stopped just after 10 for over an hour before a proper deluge but eight of us got loads done in the dry spell, planting out various flowers, bushes and bulbs, spreading compost and loading the cold frame with overwintering geraniums. We unfortunately disturbed some mice in the compost bins. 
The Wednesday Gardening Session is on from 10-11.30. Lots to do as usual. The forecast is a bit iffy – but it never rains during a Wednesday Gardening Session!
The Saturday gardening session is on, the forecast is fair so please come along.
A great turnout on a lovely day! We planted bulbs, spread compost and collected rather a lot of leaves!! All a bit too much for Janet!
There was lots of colour in the park in Sunday, but it all may have blown away by now!

The Friends of Starbank Park and Victoria Primary are working together to construct a children’s nature trail in Starbank Park. Plans for this exciting new development are well advanced. Our highly successful Halloween Party raised enough funds for us to bring forward our start date and we hope to start the construction work in the next few weeks. With fair weather, successful fund-raising and a bit of luck, it will be finished in the spring.
The heavy rain stopped just before 10 and we had a good morning replacing some summer bedding at the south end of the park with primulas and spring bulbs. There are still a few roses and fungi are still thriving, these are on a cherry tree lower trunk? Do you know what the are?
