had my 15 year old lad with me today for a bit of work experience. We had a couple of easy jobs to do, but blimey, what a scorcher!. Now he knows what its like to work in heat. Hopefully it'll be a bit cooler tommorow...

 

I think he will be on corner-shop duty on friday, Spike

Dismantled a big dead Linden today from the bucket, nice n easy, very warm, and lots of mosquitos to deal with. Just drink plenty of water, and beer when you are done
