This week we returned to the slopes and found the grass area had taken full advantage of a 2 month gap from zealous weed bashing goodgymers, the brambles and weeds had grown to knee height!

However, we had a secret weapon. Now with 50 good deeds fueling her, Sara picked up the scythe and unleashed her good-doing wrath on the brambles!

Some of the team also took a trip to another section of the slopes that needed some care, and between them and the scything team we made a large dent in the overgrowth and gave us a good starting point for next months trip!

We spotted a solitary apple growing on a tree planted earlier this year, a sign of great things to come!

We were also treated to Sara's most excellent baking, a 50/50 split between white and dark chocolate brownies! Well done on reaching 50 good deeds and thanks to everyone for coming along!

(on train atm, will upload more photos later)
