Unplanned we continued our GG social from the evening before in the cafe (also with those heading to Marsha Phoenix community mission), and delayed the start of our litter picking until we'd finished our coffees and post-parkrun (for some) breakfasts.

With Clare and Darryl unexpectedly joining us, Clare's first good deed in over a year, we look forward to many more this year, we split litter pickers and bin bags between us and headed out as a doubled team of 4. There wasn't much litter to be found, we still searched high and low and battled the wind to find around half a bin bag between the 4 of us. A good sign that our park is being looked after and litter is being put in bins/taken home, we'll see if that changes come summer.
