    Bonfire

    Bonfire Night for Plotholders

    We are going to start the maintenance 'morning' a little later - at 2pm. 

    Then around 5pm we'll fire up the BBQ and light the bonfire on the maintenance plot. We'll provide sausages and something to drink. But if you prefer you can bring a bottle and something to cook on the BBQ. 

    Plotholders can also add dry wood to the bonfire - but please do NOT bring that in advance. Keep it dry on your plot and wheelbarrow it over at 5pm on the 4th November. Do remember to bring a torch as it will be dark by 4.30pm!
