NE1 Garden Projects - Day One
Posted by Stephen Light on 25 Jul 2006 in the small hours
Daily reports from Stephen Light and the NE1 team.

Just as we had finished our prayer time together before everyone arrived we got a telephone call from NE1 to say; "err .. we've lost your team...they got on the wrong bus and are heading to Newcastle..."
Hmm
No problem. With Ronnie's team, and ours we got started on two jungles that were Lynda's and Rosemary's gardens and waited for reinforcements. Paul, Matt and Becca got to grips with industrial strength strimmers (blades instead of plastic string!) and soon cut a path through. In Rosemary's garden we even found a pond that had been hidden for years.In the pond was a frog whom William, Rosemary's son, named Pete after our own Mr Mitchell. It was a great day and after 1 1/2 hours on the bus the NE1 gang were eager to get on with the work.

It was a fantastic day amd made a real difference to William, Rosemary; who now have a pet to look after and to Lynda who can now sit in the garden with her children.
