Well we got the hedge finished today with a few whips to spare but not many and fortunately the heavy rain forecast yesterday turned to light rain this morning and in reality we didn’t get much at all.

The next Sunday Conservation Day at Hastings Country Park is January 3rd 2016, a good opportunity to work off all those Christmas excesses! Back at the Milking Parlour today we decided that the 17th would be our last working day this year and to re-convene on the 7th January.

However Christmas Eve falls on a Thursday this year and Alex has offered to renew an old tradition of mince pies and mulled wine or tea/coffee for any Volunteers who care to drop in at the Milking Parlour in the morning like he used to do at the Cottage.
