Thursday 27th June - no issues, some infrastructure to watch

A few folks about. Three cattle by the main river path, as usual. Undisturbable.  Further south someone had seen a pair of Jays.

The latch side post of the east side SPM gate is now wobbly. Not immediate, but one for the long list. And someone had brought a piece of the old bench out of NML and left it by the path in SPM.

Wednesday 26th June

 Glorious sunny morning.  We met several people strolling around. Three people asked when the footpaths would be repaired- advised them to keep an eye on the website.  Small amount of litter. Chatted to a mum and toddler having a picnic by the stream dipping platform. He pointed out a drink can caught up by the sluice from the river but sadly as had forgotten my stick, I couldn't oblige and remove it! Thanked him and said I would make sure it was removed. On the seat found the notice that was originally on the rugby ground entrance gate about the footpaths being flooded!

Sunday 23rd June - Warden

Bit cloudy today but still busy on Winnall, had some more teens who refused to swim from North Walls and kept coming on to the nature reserve and tried ripping down the no swimming signs. Half of the reeds poking through the board walk have been cut back. Lots of litter across site again and lots of booze bottles at Durngate Bench.
