  July. + August.

  had at 7£ per hours. Anyhow
  

  that is secondary, we have

  the satisfaction of knowing,
  

  that we saved the situation
  

  + what we sold was good and
  

  cheap. We also realised the
  

  value of our hut where we
  

  could sell and store our
  

  produce. Our Beans etc.
  

  were a picture, when in
  

  full foliage, + it is a pity
  

  we had not a photo taken
  

  of the land at this time
  

  so that the Club would
  

  have had a permanent
  

  memento of what was done
  

  to meet the scarcity of food
