November working bee - the results

Saturday November 28 was a scorcher of a day - hot and humid - but that didn't deter four intrepid P&C members from clearing a small patch of jungle that had sprung up on the school ground.

We were faced with a tangled and dense array of various types of weeds that had grown to nearly 4 feet in height in some places.

Surrounding the weeds were patches of dry, flammable grass clumps.

Tim, Neil, Steve and Nigel have a breather in the shade. Why is it that weeds prefer to grow in the sun?

Due to the sheer volume of weeds and grass to be removed, a skip had been organised to take it all away.

Piles of weeds that have been pulled out by the roots.

I had to leave before the job was done, but when I left, most of the weeds had been pulled out and Tim had eliminated most of the grass clumps with his whipper-snipper. It was so hot, the whipper-snipper and slasher were having a hard time, and needed to be rested frequently to stop them from overheating.

Due to the heat, it was suggested that we either do more working bees in winter, or start the summer bees early in the morning rather than noon - say a 7am start.

Thanks as usual to Tim for organising the work, arranging a skip and providing a truck and a proper set of tools to do the job.
