As agreed at the last meeting, we have a rechargeable battery operated grass strimmer available to society members. 

It's a Bosch one - Aimee tried it out and the battery life was a bit short on the first strim, but hopefully it'll improve after the second charge. 

Pending the aquisition of a shed, it's at Aimee's house. If you want to borrow it call 757667. The idea is that you charge it yourself as required, so you may need to plan ahead.

Hayle in Bloom will be judged on Thursday 14th July and the judges will be coming to look at the allotments in the morning.

I will put up a definite time nearer the time, but it's looking like between 10-12. If anyone can come down to the site and show their support on that day, it would be great.

By the way:

I have left some flower plants in trays on the grass path near #5 which need sticking in the top of the wall or at the front of it - if anyone has time to put some in that would be amazingly helpful.

Thanks to everyone who has done some weeding of public areas / empty plots at Lethlean Lane - it will help all of us by reducing next year's weed seeds...Bob has been doing lots, also Denzil, Carole M, Carol and Russell, Alan, Ruth, Simon A, Aimee etc. Much appreciated.

Aimee went to the Council meeting last Thursday at which gating of turf paths was discussed again. Unfortunately for procedural reasons the Council couldn't make a definite decision at that meeting but the upshot is that the Council are shelving the issue for now and will rediscuss at the end of the growing season, probably Oct/ Nov. In the meantime, fences and gates can stay but new people mustn't put new fences over paths. We had a lot of support from councillors, particularly John Bennett, in relation to finding a sensible negotiated solution.
