I helped out at the Scout Fayre on Saturday morning. There's a lot of preparation by the committe, and there were a good number of volunteers. I hope the many 20p coins we collected adds up to a good total.

There are legal walls for doing this ... this graffiti falls into the definition of vanadlism.

It was a lovely day for a walk and, without time to explore the countryside, we did a lap of the Sports Ground.

Bradford Street was closed for a few days to fit some metal posts with the intention of protecting the buildings that have been damaged by lorries.

However, who'll protect the posts? [Updated: 21 Mar 2007]

Scene in the High Street when I walked home from work. I wondered if anyone had had a scare when it came down.

Should have known it would have been Ed (and Ed)!

Back to normal next day, though

I'd heard that it was wet at Swanmead so I went down to have a look for myself. It is!

And to think we're supposed to be playing cricket before the month is out.

Waking up to snow this moring was a surprise.

It was a lovely day on Saturday when we cut the lawn for the first time this year. In fact, we were shaking our heads at the weather that caused the Sunderland v Fulham match to be abandoned.

Tudeley Church is open once more after having its under-floor heating replaced.

Next job, the roof.

After spending 2 weeks travelling around with a boot full of plastic bottles, we finally located a place where they can be recycled.

Well done, Hurst Green

Update
Good news! Tonbridge has its own collection point in Sainsbury's car park for recycling plastic bottles.
