Busy morning. Slit, seeded, brushed, cut and as I type it's just started raining. @BillericayRFC @Billericaybees @RFURugbyGrounds #volunteergroundsman #communityrugby #doingwhatIcanwithwhatwehave

Still quite soft in places on the training pitch but people still want to train. Managed to get the @GreenTekGroup Aeroquick over it today. #volunteergroundsman #communityrugby #essexrugby

So another weekend with no rugby. I appreciate there has been a bit of rain but what hope do you have of your pitches draining when they run in to a brook owned by @AnglianWater that haven't been dredge for 40 years and looks like this after the slightest rainfall #lossofearnings

Thursday's weather forecast gave me hope that we may get some rugby on this weekend. Then this happened! Will it arrive, who knows, but as a precaution youth chairman has made the right (in my mind) decision to cancel.@BillericayRFC @Billericaybees

Nothing I could do to get the game on this weekend. @AnglianWater Willowbrook is blocked yet again. Haven't seen a contractor at the club for a while. Never seen the floodwash field like this. Water flowing over the banks. Another weekend of lost earnings for @BillericayRFC

Thank goodness for a dry 48 hours. Managed to get @BillericayRFC @Billericaybees pitches slit and marked before non stop rain till Christmas Eve according to @bbcweather. We've a full mini and youth programme on Sunday. Hopefully not too much damage will ensue!

Match Day prep on a Tuesday? Yes, seeing the weather that's forecast. Both slit and marked. Let's hope the training pitch makes it. @Billericaybees @BillericayRFC #volunteergroundsman #communityrugby #winterpitches

Not posted for ages, but I'm still here plugging away. I've been trying to protect this one over the summer before it gets abused for the next nine months. @BillericayRFC @Billericaybees #volunteergroundsman #communityrugby #rugbypitch #Rugbyunion

Haven't posted in an age, but the work still goes on. It's been a tough winter @BillericayRFC with plenty of rain and pitch used 6 days/evenings a week. Nearly at the finish line and pitch renovations by @ParkersPitches being booked in.

Big @BillericayRFC home double header this weekend. We will be raising money for the @NiallStringerF, so I thought I'd have a go at putting a logo down on both pitches. Not too shabby! #communityrugby #volunteergroundsman #NS10

Post hole soak aways a low spot on the training pitch 14 x 1m deep 4" holes filled with 20mm shingle, topped with 70/30 sport mix Will throw some seed, but being used 6 days a week, I'm not holding much hope it'll grow #volunteergroundsman #communityrugby @BillericayRFC

Managed to squeeze a cut in today @BillericayRFC. Hopefully, mark them up tomorrow as we have a @Saracens half term camp at the end of the week. #communityrugby #volunteergroundsman #pitchcare

Looks like the @OriginAmenity Delta fertiliser has definitely kicked in. Both pitches groomed, cut, and marked today just before the 🌧🌧🌧 and training tonight.

First blocks of the season cut in this morning. The training pitch needs attention, and I'm a bit concerned it'll not get through the season at the moment. #volunteergroundsman #communityrugby
