Bonfire Weekend – update

November 23, 2011 by acornpig

By roving reporter #2 – Ron

Update 1

On the Monday following Bonfire weekend I just happened to be passing Dudmaston so I thought I would have a walk around the site where we had been working. I often find it difficult when with a group to get a full idea of what has been achieved so I started from the car park and walked through to the road. It was very impressive and easy to see why Mike was so pleased.

However the best part was that as I started walking I heard chainsaws in operation. It was Mike and Chris’s boss from Wenlock cutting down the big trees to create the vehicle access that was the overall objective. The job that we had made such good progress with, they were completing. The only trouble was that they were creating quite a lot of brash…mmmm!

Update 2

While we were at Dudmaston, Mike said it might be possible to organise a Saturday ‘tour’ of the estate to see the project areas where he will want to get done in the next year or so. This could be very interesting as we would get an overview of the plans and understand where our work fitted in with the overall objectives. We could possibly turn the day into a social event with a meal afterwards. Watch this space.
