The two big swivel buckets have had all their moving parts greased up. One of them must have had some extra work done, because the release lugs were missing a week ago and they are now back in place. Unseen work, but greatly appreciated. On 26 March the IGG met at Cotswold District Council Offices and we discussed all the events that we would be attending in the coming season. If you want to receive a copy of the minutes, please ask Mark Welton.
Meetings are largely informal and there is generally some sort of refreshment available.
Blunder Lock Easter Fun Days have been cancelled owing to current FMD restrictions and the proximity to Tim Wyatts farm - but we are planning something at Wallbridge instead. It is proposed to have a clean-up and publicity blitz over the Easter weekend. Space will also be allocated for home-made cakes, teas etc. While on the subject of Wallbridge Lock, it is noticed that Dave Northcott and Pat Pewsey have now completed the extra step at the bottom of the flight taking walkers from the lockside down to the next level. Those last few leftover blocks from Boxwell Spring Lock are still finding some uses.
