Nice leisurely stroll around the complete kit and caboodle in the sunshine on this beautiful Bank Holiday Friday.
Bumped in to Wigman and his friend.
Trees are leafing up, but crying out for water.
Heritage stones being laid behind the West Stand.
Zoom-lens not good enough to see if they were the engraved ones!
What looked like rolls of carpet being taken in to the West Stand, after the workers had had a well earned siesta.
The green covering on various walls behind the West Stand and around the station are where initially they were covered in hessian sacking, then sprayed with a seed mix (hydra-seeding).
I've taken a close-up so you can see the seeds.
We've had pansies and daffs. This week, Cowslips!
Let's do that arrogant mob and ram Adkins's words right up there tomorrow.

Main news this week.
The Albion are promoted with 5 games to spare.
Who will ever forget the D & R game. What an evening, even if the lap of honour didn't quite go according to plan.
28 days to go before hand over, (see photo).
Grass is growing.
Seats going in at a great rate, incorporating a flock off seagulls.
Championship with a win at Walsall tomorrow.
What a season it's been.
Look out for Barry Izbak's video special on Sunday. It'll be a corker!
Thanks to everyone within the Club who made this visit possible.
