Yesterday was a momentous time for us all. After two and a half years of digging the Lake and restoring the paddle boats we finally launched our fleet ready for use this weekend. Of course we had to have a go ourselves! Unfortunately my large frame and the small boat did not match and I almost capsized, anyway I ended up with lots of water in the bottom of the boat and a very wet behind. But it was all good fun, in future I think I’ll stick to the larger boats.

TRAC has new arrivals!

Our new lake is becoming more and more popular with wildlife.  A couple of Canada Geese arrived a few weeks ago and then there was only one, What had happened? Had the local fox pounced? Had they had a bust up? Well the answer became clear on Tuesday when Mr & Mrs Goose proudly presented six little Goslings, swimming on the lake. Our first offspring.  

We have been working hard to completely refurbish the kitchen, dining room and washing up areas of the site during the winter. It's been a rush against time to complete all of the work but, as we finally washed over the new tiled floor the first guests arrived.
