Hi folks

You will have noticed signs that our family home (Jane, John and Eva Reynolds with the red door and Maurice and I with the green) is finally approaching completion. We figure Sam will be highly motivated to finish now his clubhouse container has gone.

Then providing the building inspector is happy on Monday week, we will start moving in the following day.

As soon as the boxing is up for the paths and driveway we want to start tidying that shared strip between the house and the Toiora driveway, and propose putting down some bark chip for starters so it looks ok in the meantime and for the open day. Really building up the soil and planting can wait.

John is on leave at the moment, so we might start bringing in and spreading bark this weekend if that’s ok with everyone. Obviously he will have to come up the driveway but will try not to block it for longer than necessary to offload.

A lot of you know Jane and John from earlier UCOL days (tho Eva has grown a bit since then) but those who don’t feel free to introduce yourselves if you see John with the bark. (Feel free to bring a rake.)

Subject to discussion with the garden group, we hope that strip will be planted mostly with natives.

Cheers Rosemarie, Maurice, Jane, John and Eva
