We were back at Cultivate London last night - a wonderful charity which repurposes unused land in London to grow nurseries and train young people. Our job was to break down pallet boxes and remove nails so that they can be used to build raised beds and beautiful bug hotels.

We were soon hard at work, talking about the hills (or lack of them) in the area, epic cycle rides and singing Hammer related songs. we were only slightly perturbed by the alarming sounds of foxes - or were they frogs or squirrels? - screaming away in the background.

After 40 minutes of hard work we had a pile of de-nailed planks ready to be repurposed and all that was left to do was a group photo before heading back off into the chilly night. Next week we're back to Turnham Green, so bring along your headtorches if you have them. Until then, happy running!
