Six eager MNTV volunteers met Bree the newest ranger, of just 7 weeks, in the car park at the National Trust offices for Formby for a 10:00 am start. I say eager as we had sorted everything out and started to our work site for 10 o'clock.
For a day that had been forecast earlier in the week to be quite wet it turned out not a bad day and did get quite hot at times. We were working in the same field as we worked in two years previously so it just shows how much this ragwort can grow and spread. It grows that fast that you clear an area and when you go back a few minutes later to put more in the wheelbarrow it's grown again where you have just cleared. Well that's my excuse for obviously missing some.
It was a good day and thanks to Bree for having us and best wishes in her new job.
