Jean and George's Pond
This is what Jean found when she went
out on Thursday morning ,after all the snow

The whole canopy had collapsed into
the pond under the weight of the snow. Its been cleared now. She's just waiting to see if
there is any damage, and how the fish will react , when it warms up. |

Where did all the water go?
So there I was, 3.30pm on September 28th 2007, hose pipe in hand, trying to water my Bonsai stock. Why is this time so precisely etched in my memory? It became one of those times in your life you won't forget in a hurry, a bit like when Kennedy was shot. I say trying to water my Bonsais because, although the water pressure in Wollaston wouldn't blow your hat off, it's normally enough to have a decent squirt, if you see what I mean. There just wasn't enough water to make it worth the effort.
