Having created havoc setting off alarms and such like trying to gain access to what appeared to be an unmanned South Woodford station the Station Master finally emerged from the staff room to let myself and a local resident/Station Planter enthusiast onto the platform. He was actually very helpful and courteous even showed us what buttons to press to get in next time.

We were delighted to find the planters looking good and only needing a minimal amount of weeding. As we finished I took cuttings of a prolific aromatic herb...some sort of sage I think...as the SHP allotment project will appreciate it-spreading the GG love across the missions ❤️

I forgot to take photos until we were off the platform and didn't want to rouse the nice Station Master from his slumbers again so here's photos of my bike at the station and the cutting which looks a bit sad as I don't think it appreciated the cycle home.
