Buffeted by brisk winds a quartet ran northwards to The Up Garden, discussing our least favourite invention. I had potentially too much time to consider, starting off with the plough, the instigator of the developed world? But quickly reverted to a back-up, the gun. Hils went for cars, Ruth doesn't want 4g on her phone and Jack prefers to not be notified that his headphone volume is too high. We're all basically luddites, good stuff.

The Princes and Sarah had obviously beaten us there, they had already banked some miles and were beavering away on the mural. We joined in, weeding below the mural wall and painting the bottom bricks. The final few touches before it's finished. We discussed Coronation stuff...and Night of The 10k's, this is the mad running festival on hampstead heath, organised by my bro, it's now one of the fastest races on the planet, it's free and it's very much worth coming along to (volunteering or not). See here or sign up here for volunteering.

Next week we dash over Get Out, fresh from our last potato planting session, Kieran is super keen for our help. sign up here

Till then,
