Timber..Tree felling on the first




The first shot shows the first fairway including the delightful toilet/shower block. This is hopefully to be demolished otherwise there will soon be a whole new meaning to the phrase 'drive through.' As mentioned previously the snowy weather has brought construction to a halt but Jon & Claudia have been hard at work felling the stand of trees to the right of the shower block.
The second picture shows how the view of the land has been opened up following the removal of the conifers. Once work is more advanced, Jon & Claudia will be planting some trees but intend to use native varieties such as oak.
There has been a bit of drama at Gardeners Cottage this week. First of all Jon managed to fall down the stairs..he promised me he just wasn't paying attention and had not been drinking. Then on Thursday the roof of the shed collapsed forcing Jon to do a bit of digging to rescue the bikes. Fortunately no damage was done other than to the shed of course but it did make us all pause to think about the poor souls in Haiti.
