First Wednesday of 2015 and it was a wild and windy morning at the park, with white horses and rainbows on the Forth.

Despite the wind, it was reasonably warm and dry so we got loads done.   There was the usual weeding and tidying but we also have made a good start on the new path to the compost bins, despite some tree roots’ best efforts.  Note the tidy borders and how excellently Graham and I were able to supervise Rod.

Best wishes for 2015.

Lots will be going on at the park in 2015.  We will build on the huge progress in 2014 and we aim to win a Green Flag award.  We will therefore be working hard with the Council to keep the park neat, tidy, and environmentally sustainable too.

Bucketing rain stopped at 9.30am on Christmas Eve and started again at about noon but there was a fine winter’s morning for gardening in between.  We planted climbers and shrubs around the compost area and in the SW corner.  And we weeded…

It was a fine mild morning yesterday and we managed a lot of weeding, despite the Christmas garb!

I must admit, though, we didn’t hang about too long before adjourning for Janet’s fresh morning coffee in the park and wandering off for Christmas lunch at Porto and Fi.
