It was hard to give them up, but we gave some of our books to Tesco who will sell them and give the profits to the Fratton Together Food Pantry.

Andi had help from Little Miss who happily packed up a mini collection for other children to enjoy.

There were so many of us this evening, we had to take turns doing good! In-between, we were shown around the facilities of the Adventure Playground by the kids. Lots of fun was had on the zip-line, tire swing, slide and cargo net.

We got stuck in with digging initially, then we got to crack out the big guns. A sledgehammer and a crow-bar came in very handy, and we got to witness Liz go wild with an axel grinder!

By the end of the session, we had destroyed the boat carcass, moved the remains to a bonfire pile ready for a viking burial, then even dug up some breeze blocks buried deep under the ground.

Although the rain kept a lot of the birds under cover this weekend, we still recorded valuable data for the RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch.

Another week of tub collection and delivery to the pub. Well done all!

Ran to Portsmouth Samaritans to help them keep answering the phones.
