Just been to the Ashes which should be opening later today, spoke to Michelle who has her hands full with the pub opening and not helped by water leaks and electrical issues.

She is more than happy for our September and October meets to go ahead with camping if there is anyone who wants to camp and we can get back to a Saturday evening camp fire if we want and she is really grateful for any offer of help as she has not yet had time to assess what needs doing outside, other than she is having the grass cut in the beer garden area. There are no restrictions placed on us by Michelle or the brewery so we just need to take our own sensible precautions.

The gate to our field is shut but there is no padlock so it can be entered, the grass needs a cut but is nowhere near as bad as the adjoining football pitches and she is happy for us to turn up whenever and just get on with things, she offered to pay but I told her it would be a thankyou for use of the field

So what needs doing ?

> Grass needs cutting
> Strimming edge of our field and maybe approaches to the field from the car park
> Tidy up wood near changing rooms - she will be having a bonfire in November but a lot of the wood there at the moment is not much use and she is happy for us to burn it as we please - Steve Devilish has offered to help with this

It will be difficult to coordinate our efforts to show willing and do the above jobs as I have no idea when people are available, so maybe a way forward might be to post on here if you are going to help and if anyone else is available on the same day and time they can also post on here and that way we may form a small group.

There are not many jobs listed as yet for the meet ( viewtopic.php?f=191&t=629) and it may be a good thing for the first meet as we can all get on the same field and there will be plenty of room for those carrying out any jobs to maintain a distance and the rest who maybe just want to chat and catch up can do that too.

If you are coming please visit the pub if you can and make a purchase
