Sunday 21st June
Hoping the rain would hold off, Alan, Rita, Astrid and Parsley ventured back into the cemetery today. They were delighted to see Keith (one of the neighbours) had trimmed the hedge along the boundary fence, and they thanked his wife when they saw her. Alan with his mattock dug up the nettles and long grass between the path of headstones and hedge and got about half way along. Astrid scattered wild flower seeds in the ground that Alan had turned over last week, while Rita gently raked them into the soil. Astrid and Rita then went back to help Alan by picking up the hedge cuttings. After filling 3 dumpy bags of grass and twigs they decided it was time to go home.
