Two sessions have taken place on the Embankment under FOGS' new monthly licensing agreement with Network Rail. We are delighted how well the plants have taken over the winter and we are busy adding to the stock - for example several lavenders have been placed at the front of the banking. Due to the kindness of Eric, 70 plants from his own garden have been added as well! John LeG continues to paint the buffer stop which is starting to look very smart. John K's litter picks ensure the track looks immaculate too. Pete kindly put in a couple of hours before starting his own shift at Dinting Signalbox - appreciated! Bunty and Jacqueline have cheered us all up with tea and bacon butties! We are receiving lots of nice comments from waiting passengers as to how colourful it is beginning to look. The next session is Sunday June17th. FOGS' thanks as always to Russell from Network Rail for his cheery good humour even at the start of the sessions at 06.00!! and to Mike Frankiln for supplying the orange jumpsuits, Hats and gloves - practical and comfortable
