We couldn’t go to Sparks but we could celebrate an evening of NO RAIN by getting out and making our streets sparkling, or at least litter-free.

Runners set off for the Malago Greenway to help the watercourse and the walkers strides away to the edges of the City Farm (Friday morning Community Mission venue) to tackle the litter-catching hedges then along by the very swanky looking new student accommodation which seems to be by a culvert none of us have ever seen before.

As well as hauls recycling (clear bags) and litter (green bags) the walkers added a pair of boots, a pair of very soggy trainers and a sodden hoodie/hoody (?) and a shopping trolley which was duly returned to ASDAs/ASDAl and discussion ensued about Sainsburgs.

Everyone regrouped at Workout for pots of tea and an egg incident. Just your standard Tuesday evening

Tidying up after a bit of destruction - at least it looked better after the tidying

Jana and I braved the rain which soon stopped, clearing the debris left at the side of the building including clearing the patio so there are now only three piles, garden waste, wood bits and the flytip/metal - the patio should be usable next Sunday 😂

We also uncovered some climbers, maybe honeysuckle, so created a temporary frame to show where the plants are - we might get to use some of the woodpile to build a structure for the to grow up and over - re-using whatever we can.
