Tuesday was the grass cutting/maintenance day. We were on site from 7am to 4.30pm.
Julia spent the day zooming about on the trusty mower doing all four fields making fancy patterns all around! It’s like crop circles in some places ….. without the aliens unfortunately.
Tony spent the day strimming the edges of each field, the hills, round the trees and within the pond areas all to within an inch of their lives! This is actually the hardest job as it’s very time consuming, very tiring and if there’s any hidden dog poo the strimmer can whizz it around causing a right mess. Luckily Tony wears a face covering to protect his face from that! It’s happened and it’s not pleasant.
Joanne spent the day disinfecting all the signs, bins, boxes, gate handles and shelters (and Tony if the dog poo had splattered him 🤢). She also checked the fencing of every field, checked for hidden dog poo, added water to the water butts and the worst job was digging up patches of thistles that have started to grow back. Once you see one you see more.
Maintenance is an ongoing job - every day - but this once monthly full day is important for us to keep on top of the grass and gives us time to check and clean everything more thoroughly.
Thank you as always for your continued support of our little business.
(And remember to pick up your dogs poo!! 💩)
