We hoped that this would be our final week at Low Wood Farm but rain and impending bad weather drove us away at lunchtime. Eight of us this time; Andy, Duncan, Rob, Rod, Chris, Val Barry and Graham. Andy, Duncan and Rob finished the final 20 yards of toppers at the far end and Barry and Rod completed the cheek end to the left of the gate posts. Since last week, Richard had fitted the gate providing an almost finishing touch to this mammoth job. Chris, Val and Graham set about the cheek end at the right hand gate post which became a major demolition job and ended up being unfinished when rain stopped play. There will be a final visit next week by a small group to complete the job but lunchtime included a completion toast to this fine wall. For those interested in stats, the length of the rebuilt wall is 92 of Barry's steps and 110 of Graham's. This week's cake, provided by Sally, was coffee and walnut and pies were provided by Rod. We had another long chat with Sally, who once again seemed very pleased with what we've done and invited us back to look at it at our leisure.
