This evening we did round two of helping local Cllr Madhuri Bedi with the Grampian Way playground project.

It was great the see the murial wall all complete and looking amazing. It has a wonderful theme of birth to childhood to adolescence and adulthood.

Walking is the new running

Having had just completed the Brighton marathon, my little legs had no running left in them, so luckily Pam and Jean were happy to walk to the task today.

A lovely 2km walk and talk there where we met with Cllr Bedi and Sut and Claire.

Va va broom

Jean and Pam went straight to work sweeping up all the leaves whilst Madhuri gave me the background to the murial, where we even get a mention!

Sut and Claire cracked on with picking up the little piles that Pam and Jean had created.

I played a mainly supervisory role today and kept an eye on the timings.. as we didn't want to over sweep!

Within around 40 minutes we had swept the whole playground and were ready to make our way back to our meet up point.
