Slush puppies

Three runners converged on the Crouch End Open Space, to open up a drainage trench beside a path.

Dave and Cassie met on the Greenways road, after a run and bike ride respectively. We got a bit lost, but soon found one of the CREOS volunteers to lead us to "the Meadow". Which had been turned onto a bit of a marsh by the recent rain. In fact some of the paths were in danger of getting washed out. So we set to work digging a small drainage ditch, to let the rain water run around the paths, and having a good old chinwag. Before long Mitchell showed up for his first mission (welcome to GoodGym!) and we really got that soil shifted.

Then we only had task left. Setting up the picnic! Homemade leek and potato soup, and crusty baguettes. Yum! And off into a beautiful sunny afternoon.
