 The 'A' Team (Mike, ANdy, John B, Pat and Dave) have done a great job today- 3 completed tasks.

The 1st was completing the clearance along ABU35 alongside Buckland Wood- 200m- with an interesting chat with the Buckland Manor Estate Farm Manager regarding wayward Satnav drivers.

The 2nd job was completing the clearance  around ABU34 Burhill Coppice with help from the landowner Edward Wiggans and an even more interesting discussion on Koi carp. Approx 10m of clearance done. We ended up at the Carenza Stables at Stanton and cleared 100m around on AST3/4

 Again- a good rapport with the stable owners. Please add to list that an additional 2 waymark posts are required for ABU11 and ABU34 at Buckland. Plus- Andy has found true love with a hedge trimmer and Mike is seeking a divorce from Stella.😜

9 of us (Vin, Mike, Jeremy, John B, John R, Simon, Dave, Pat, me) joined by Cerian from the land owners and CNL Glorious Grasslands to put in a permissive path above the church at Saintbury. Great pics from Mike and a good result for a previously steep PROW.  This was followed by a "team meeting" back in Broadway.

Interesting project to remove a ladder stile and replace with a traditional step stile on Seven Wells (HCC55) between Chipping Camden and Snowshill.  After some initial destructive work to get the old stile out and some hefty digging into stoney ground the job was completed by a small team of Mike, Vin, John W, John B, Pat, Dave and Lawrence.

Two teams today: Team 1 (Jeremy, John W, Simon, John B, Pat and Dave) went back to Willersey to put in the second kissing gate on Willersey Hill fields. Clearly practice makes perfect as the gate was put in in record time despite the stoney ground. After pictures awaiting fence to marry up   Team 2 (team of 2) was Mike and Lawrence.  Two tasks: fitting a grid over a ditch in the run up to a field gate at Greystones Farm; the second was installing a way marker on HCC29 below the abbey fields in Chipping Camden.  Grid protection for ditch by gate Chipping Camden waymarker
