WoW! 12 Volunteers, that's brilliant
Had the pleasure of meeting the industrious Mr Paul Sampson on Monday morning at Connaught Park. I was looking everywhere for a sweeping brush when suddenly a knight in shining armour turned up on his white horse, brush in hand
Now, how's that for service
except he was in a white van but I like my version better

great views from there too, paul has sent us some great photos in.
