What a difference two days make! From running in torrential rain on Saturday to a balmy Summer evening today...

Natasha and myself made our way to the community allotment tonight to help the Polish Community Hub make progress on their plot.

We may have gotten slightly distracted swooning over all the heaving plots filled to the brim with Summer vegetables, verdant trees and blooming wild flowers but we got down to work building boxes to help separate the plot and provide stability.

Employing a give-it-a-go attitude, the first one was a learning curve but undeterred - and fuelled by apple cake (yum!) - we endeavoured to get a second one built before we left.

A swift run home and we totalled about 4.5 miles.

We look forward to helping out again soon- thanks to the wonderful Magda for having us and showing us the ropes.

(Pun: credit where credit is due, Tash..)
