An oasis in the sun.

Meanwhile in Westminster 13 brave souls headed north for the evening in a bid to prevent a beautiful community gardens flowers and plants from slipping into a state of dryness and slowly but surely wilting away.

Today we headed over to the Oasis green gym. A community garden set up and run completely by local volunteers. Prior to Susannah and her team kick starting this initiative with a community grant there were no trees or flowers, plants, fruit or veg to speak of.

Since they have taken over the space they have put together a number of planters filled with all kinds of goodness inclusive of my favourite snack SPINACH.

Any how as this task was only a mile away from us we flew there at pace, weaving our way as normal through the back streets to avoid traffic lights and congestion popping out nicely in covent garden.

On arrival we greeted by a few members of staff who guided us through to the plants.

A quick health and safety briefing about NOT FALLING IN THE SWIMMING POOL followed by a lovely briefing from our host about the history of the garden and correct watering technique. Watering cans and hoses and were handed out and we were off.

Obviously regardless of how much there was to water with a team of 13 it was finiiiito in 15 minutes flat.

Group picture, some sad goodbyes and we were off. Now the question was posed, do you want a hard and fast 1 mile back or do you want a steady 2miler back. SO me being that guy we ran 1.5miles hard and fast and jogged the other half mile back to base with GIANT smiles on our faces.

Thanks for your time folks.... Hopefully we will see yalllll next week.
