Despite the rain over lunch time on Monday 30th October, four people still turned up to do some weeding and pruning at Jane & Bill's making 6 people in total. After 90 minutes of concentrated work, the usual magnificent afternoon tea was enjoyed by all, and down came the rain again! Jane Parris A good turn out on a hot day at Kirstin and Marcus’s for the last garden team meeting of 2017. Bill even came early so he could get in a full session and still make it to the opening of the refurbished seniors’ room - now that’s dedication! We finished with our usual delicious afternoon tea, good conversation and celebratory drinks. Thanks to Elspeth for co-ordinating our efforts this year (and next!). Marcus Bolger |

About the Garden TeamA band of enthusiastic gardeners gathers once a month for an afternoon at each member’s garden in rotation. The working bee uses each members skills and abilities to achieve about six hours effect in an hour and a half. Then we rest on our laurels with tea provided by the host and a home-baked and/or healthy plate from the visitors. We head home a little fitter and inspired, often with a new cutting or garden tip. Meeting Times2nd and 5th Mondays
2 to 4 pm Meet at members' gardens by turn. (If the 2nd Monday is a public holiday, the garden team often meets on an alternate day. Information about changes is included in the newsletter) Convenor and contact detailsElspeth Maconachie
