Bike stand day

Busy day at the Shed today (23-04-19). Dozen people there, plus others who dropped in. Several people dropped in with bikes to repair

Hmm.. the back yard is filling up with bikes

Terry with a hoe that someone had brought in to mend and which he did

But the biggest achievement of the day was to put up tow Sheffield bike stands. This took a lot of digging, mainly by Rick and the use of a posthole digger (see Chris wielding one below)

There always have to be two watching when anybody is digging a hole. This time its Jim & Sal

It was a busy day on the Parade generally as we basked in what might be the last of the good weather

A team from "Songs of Praise" were busy interviewing people from the Den community cafe next door on the pavement cafe they had set up. Great for the free coffee and cake we got. Not so good in that we had to wait until they finished before we cold use the hammer drill to make holes for the bike stands

Meanwhile at the end of Merseybank Parade,

Finishing the Rain Shelter

Only four panels left to go on the rain shelter and we (mainly Michael!) managed to fix them very quickly yesterday, so it is finally done. Checked them out this morning and it did its job with the rain
