Only four people braved the cold morning for yesterday's monthly clean-up. One of us managed to fill three rubbish bags. As we didn't have a May clean-up due to the weather, this was the first time to survey the damage caused by Cyclone Vaianu in mid-April. Notably the area behind the amphitheatre had been hard hit with many uprooted trees. I guess the District Council staff will get round to clearing the area in due course.
