Latest from Foxcotte (23/07/08)
Tuesday evening work parties have begun again with up to 20 members
and committee attending. With the addition of a new weed pusher attached
to the front of the boat, Chairman Charlie Topping steered the boat
through the weed, pushing the floating weed to the bank side where teams
were waiting with rakes and nets to remove it from the metal forks.
A big thank-you to Head Bailiff Maurice Giles for making the new weed
pushing attachment for the boat. On the bungalow bank side the rake
teams of Gerry Blunt and Dean Vickery, Terry Whenman and Roy Rolfe,
Bill and Tony Underhill cleared the forks of the boat and marginal weed
each time the boat did a sweep into their peg. On the front of the boat,
Mike steered Charlie through the weed patches indicating when the weed
pusher was full. The rest of the helpers cleared marginal weed from
every swim - the clean up will continue next Tuesday, clearing top bungalow
bank. See photos in the gallery.
