No show from Wigan Council yet…

…but there’s time!

Anyway it’s getting almost the prime time to be gathering seeds, sowing new ones and of course swinging into action on clearing a whole new patch of land.  So over the next few months there should be quite a few new updates from me as I intend to grab the bull by the horns and finish what I’ve started.

A particular point of focus will be the really boggy patch which makes the line almost impassable in winter and when it is wet, so I will be filling that in pref with cinders but filled in all the same.

I have to say it has been really encouraging seeing the increased use of the line by families with prams and individuals in general, considerably more than I have ever seen. Makes it all worth while.

Anyway ttfn
