If you spot anything else please add it.
I am sure bacon butties will be on the go to help.

The first job on the list has been done thanks to Stuart D and one of his merry men.

If you edit your post, we won't know what the first one was.

Well done Stuart and bush men.

Tony Rose is donating some guttering.

Have added a couple of extra jobs to the list.
The Rack is already underway, and the bank has started to be cleared thanks to Erling (pull em out by hand)Holmberg and Eddie (bushman) Blake.

It would be good to have 3 or 4 people this Sunday to help clear the bank in the small boat park before we put the boats back.

BANK CLEARERS AND A FIREMAN NEEDED (must be sensible)
Long reach cutting tools needed, possibly a climber Bob.

It looks like Erling and Liam are shirking this weekend.
Now that the bank below the club is cleared we need the bank by the BBQ clearing and the rubbish getting rid of to be able to get the boats back in the boat park.
Ether a lot of cars with bags, a large van or a big bonfire if the rubbish is dry enough.

The trouble with large vans and lorries is they get really shitty at the tip. I don't think it's very dry material for burning.

I'll see if I can find some bags.

Bank behind the B B Q is clear, just a couple of bags of rubbish left to get rid of at the back of the Club.
Kim spotted that there is a loose panel on the side of the Safety boat hut.

Do you have any large "green" rubbish bags Can the Club borrow them Could you drop them down to the Club please
We can fill them as we are trimming back the top bank.

Thanks
