Saved It For A Rainy Day

Once again GoodGym were in Russell Square to assist the square's Friends group in planting bulbs. After last night's rain, the ground was nice and soft for inserting the metal bulb-planting tool into. The earth thus removed could be replaced after the bulb had been planted. The best technique is initially to jump on the bulb-planter, ensuring a deep cut.

After more than an hour's hard work, the drizzle turned into proper rain, so we all sheltered in the cafe. As the downpour showed no signs of easing off, we returned only to fill in the holes already dug, but we'd achieved a lot in the time spent, and come spring the square will be brightened by blooming flowers.

Special thanks to the assistance of a mysterious grim-faced stranger who had eyes in the back of his head (see picture)...
