Workday at the SE Woods...sunday 28th March

Hi foggers

Please be advised that on Sunday 28th March 2010 we will doing a Workday at the site...and some prep work for the next picnic...

We will meet at 9am at Notcutts garden centre just off j7 m20 (head towards maidstone from j7 and its immediately on your left...)
(the meet point may be changed to the woods, if everyone attending has been before and knows where they are going...I will advise)

Please bring with you any tools that you have that may be useful for clearing trees, digging and lunch/drinks as nowhere very near to get grub when you have worked up an appetite.

Dont worry if you cant bring your fronty, we find somewhere to park the lesser cars if not 4x4's so you can still join in if you want to.

Probably not a good idea to bring dogs to the work days, I am just concerned about them running around with chainsaws going and 4x4's moving around,
and children must be kept on a tight leash and near parents at all times as we dont want any accidents. :shock:

Workdays will be capped at 5 members + me, and we will be grafting as a team to get work done...this will involve some delegation of tasks within the team to ensure we are both productive and safe...
This is gonna be hard graft, I can be a bit of a slave driver :shock: , and for maximum productivity please only add your name if you are available for the full day...

Please note this is NOT a playday, and although some 4x4 driving/working will probably be involved during the day, we are there to work to get the site ready for the next picnic...

Anyone "outworked" by Sally will be on toilet emptying duty at the next weekender!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Your safety is paramount, I must insist that anyone attending ensures that they stay a safe distance from any felling or chainsaw operations or moving vehicles...
Falling debris can be unpredictable in its direction or distance of fall, so please be very careful...



Please add your name to the list if you are coming to help with this, and thanks for your support guys...we are really getting there with the site now!!!

See you soon

I'll hopefully be at this one mate so if you want to save a few quid on juice your welcome to come via my place, leave your Fronty here and we can head down in my Disco. Will have to take the TD5 as may well have the car trailer on the back taking another Fogger's Suzuki SJ down to him at the Woods. :D
