It'll be a very long time before any of our trees look like this. These are the two that grow between the village hall and the school, stripped bare in winter. Spring and summer pictures will follow.

Now the weather's warmer, the young trees are growing fast.

EGGS Secretary Sue Mackie reported on our progress to the Annual Parish Meeting on Tuesday 12th April. There weren't many people there and no one seemed interested enough to ask any questions, except one parish councillor, who wanted to know why we'd called it EGGS, in a disapproving sort of way. Well, at least he was paying attention.

Spring is springing at last, so the trees are starting to sprout leaves. You have to get close to see most of them but soon they'll all be green.
