Howick Historical Village Painting - Methodist Church Complete

Thanks everyone for the magnificent turnout.

11x Lions - Fantastic.

The Methodist Church is now finished and looks resplendent. The Club can be proud of their work. Some Lions worked on the Brindle Cottage where there is still more work to do.

Because of the large turnout everyone was off the site by 11.30am. Dean made sure that Health and Safety was observed. He also carried a large green medical kid which Neil insists he had emptied and put his lunch inside. Dean just smiled - only he knew its contents.

The weather was fine and sunny. It was also initially rather cold with a southerly wind but the Lions will and pedigree prevailed. Morning tea was fresh lemon warm muffins from June plus the Village supplied plenty of biscuits and some chocolate fingers.

Next Sunday is washing down parts of Brindle Cottage ready for undercoat. The weatherboards received a top coat today.

Scaffolding was at last in place and Lion Paul did some of the aerial work with Alan on trapeze high above. Generously flicking paint spots down onto Lions below.

Once again thanks guys and Agnes who seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the painting.

Cheers,
Lion Colin Salt
Vice President
