Blowing the leaves

There are so many trees in the arboretum that it takes weeks for the municipal workers to gather up all the fallen leaves. I did a few jobs in the morning and learnt how to digitally sign PDF documents. The three chaplaincies in the Pyrénees Orientales, the Gard and the Herault have unanimously agreed on a preferred candidate to fill the vacancy. The guy will have to come from Oregon in the States but he seems very keen. We hope he will accept the position. However, we will only see him approximately once per month. I spent the rest of the morning trying to sponge off all of the rainwater from the court so that this afternoon's training session could go ahead. We were just about able to play but the balls got rather wet behind the court which affected play.
