First open day this year at the Kilmorey Mausoleum.

At last I have got a little bit of spare time, and a modicum of enthusiasm at the moment; to add another Blog entry about the Open Day two weekends ago, for the local St. Margaret's residents, at the Kilmorey Mausoleum.




After a lot of hard work over last winter, the gardens are looking good.























It surprised us that 198 people turned up on the day, which started out quite sunny, but descended into typical Bank holiday cool grey skies weather in the afternoon, with rain arriving later in the evening. 



















I was in charge of the wood burning Kelly Kettles this time, which provide hot water for the Eco Teas stall area, where also some nice home made cakes were provided!

Views around the woodland area in the dappled sunlight, whilst we still had it!



As it was an open day, the Mausoleum was open to view inside.



































With the heavy door open, the shining skylights can be seen.

It was a long day for all the volunteers concerned, and we eventually got to pack everything up at about 5.30 p.m. In the gloomy, cold, rain threatening evening skies! Though a good time was had by all involved that day.
