Update

3rd August 2019 – UPDATE

Hi all,

Just an update: our open day is Saturday 17th August 10-1p.m. Spare produce/cakes/help will be appreciated.

I know it is a busy time of year but if anyone has a spare half hour, a little bit of weeding on the Boscombe bank would be welcome.

Outing to Deal Saturday 7th September, leaving Chadwell Clube 9.20 and the Oaks 9.30. I think I know where you want to be picked up from, but could you confirm  by email, thanks

Tetanus

27th July 2019 – TETANUS

Hi All

Just a reminder to all working regular outside, to consider a Tetanus vaccine if you haven’t one.

Or if like me your 10 year booster has run out 2 years ago, book a booster with your doctor.

Regards

Andrew

Chairs

4th July 2019 – CHAIRS

Chairs from Rosedale Road site have been found in the cemetery, they have now been put on plot 4N

If they are yours you can collect them. Would be helpful if you could hide them or put them in your shed until they have got fed up with nicking them!

Paths & Bonfires

Hi All

Just a reminder to members, can you all keep your paths clear and free from debris.

Please remember your South path is your responsibility to maintain.

Also we have had another complaint about bonfires during the day. Please make sure you are aware of the wind direction if you have to light during the day.

Ideally after 6pm should result in less complaints.

Please compost green waste to reduce smoking bonfires.

Happy Growing

Andrew
