Rhodybash at Lyme Park on 24 January 2016


A clear, dry day and plenty of enthusiasm for the task saw quite a bit of rhody cut down. The group was working just below Paddock Cottage. Any time someone wanted a breather they could see Alderley Edge and gaze over the Cheshire plain to the Welsh Hills.


A vigorous fire consumed the rhododendron cut down by 13 volunteers, for whom there was just enough cake to go round without breaking out the Sloppy Kisses (they were supposed to be Coffee Kisses, but I think I got the proportions wrong).


The Rangers, as ever, were supportive and grateful for the group's contribution (and the cake).
