Tonight's task was at Oasis Foundry, well Boulton School to be exact. We set off with Miriam leading the way, on arrival we were met by task owner Megan and our walker, Amy who was already hard at work.

The task was to get some gloves on (hence the pun!) and plenty of sanding wooden pallets, plus a bit of gardening and attaching felt to the pallets, before filling them with compost, so plenty to do! We spent a good half hour at the task, before heading off.

On the way back Miriam and Eve led us back along the canal this time, we had a bit of a run in with some 'hissy' geese, before getting back onto the road side and arriving back at 1000 Trades. That was a nice 7k done in total :)
