Tonight we got back to a task we haven't done in a long time, yep we were back helping out at the Jewellery Quarter Cemetry. The 3 of us met Josie, before walking up to the Cemetry to complete our good deed.

The task was to remove all the ivy, which would reveal a path and even some steps. We spent a good half hour, pulling and cutting the ivy, which meant by the end we were certainly on the right path! Tom even managed to roll some ivy up like a carpet (see the pics!) We even saved a couple of snails on the way.

Once done we headed out on a run, taking in some of Hockley, then coming back to the Jewellery Quarter, for a good 4k loop. Once back we had a well earned pint.
