The Clean-Up — Thank you to the nine members who put in the ‘big ones’ (3.5 hours) yesterday to give the Shed a good clean-up. They were: Dick, Mark, Reg, Brian, Bob, Ray, Len, Shane & Paul. Even though the Shed is given a clean-up each week a though going over (like yesterday) needs to be an annual event.
