More fun cleaning up Uncle Pauls

A workteam met at Uncle Paul’s castle on 21st October to spruce the place up:- at least until some invaders came to chase them away!

The invaders watching us watching them,

So the end result was a team looking on:-

and the castle is not quite finished:

As far as we got painting today. Also no ladders to do the top bits and ran out of paint. Far left is where we need to do some work.

Having been chased away from the castle we could only stand and watch the antics of up to 8 baboons who obviously think the castle is a great jungle gym. Wish they would choose another day of the week. Even with the farm workers and their paint guns all around us we had no peace. The Rotaractors are thinking of buying their own devices.

UNCLE PAUL’S – THE FIRST CLEAN UP ON Sun 7 Oct

<:–The road was so bad that most folk elected to walk up.

Interesting bringing some stuff down!!! –>

The farm have started eradicating alien trees. This has left Rotary Walk and the left of the castle (as you look at it from the arena) a “little” exposed. The chain saw came out and we did a lot of cleaning up. A long way to go still. Took 2 tractor loads away and then it just became to muddy for the tractor to move. New walls/screens have to be built to hide Rotary Walk now. Going to be lots more work parties before the start of Uncle Paul’s.
