An unwell Brahma meant a Prince led evening.

A welcome return of Rosa after a very busy work schedule and few days in the sun and Simon for his first GG of the year following and injury.

A gentle run along the greenway to Abbey Garden where Xuan greeted us for a mix of weeding,watering and detangling some bunting.

We split into two groups with Brad and Simon clearing near the fence by the coffee and Hilary and Rebecca clearing between the trees.

Kevin was on hose watering while Rosa and I had the water cans to water the raised beds.

We finished off with the bunting.....it had become so tangled but as Xuan was happy for piece to cut to make coloured piece to tie to the fence.

Hopefully Brahma will be back to led is to Up Garden next week following their second appearance on The One Show

A nice gentle 3k for Kevin and I today as we headed to help a local resident clear an overgrowing Ivy bush.

We were warmly greeted and shown through to the back garden.

Gloved on and shears in hand we set about removing the ivy,it was mixed in with some brambles which we also removed.

A cup of tea and five bags later the ivy had well and truly been cut back.

We said our goodbyes and took a leisurely walk home via West Ham park in the sunshine.
