The dark nights are setting in, but we were lucky to have a crisp and dry evening as we set off for the task. Pete led us on a run around an approx. 3km loop to the task so we were nice and warmed up before beginning.

Our task was to clear brambles from around the churchyard at St Peter's in the Forest. Upon arriving we spotted a lovely little froggy enjoying the evening dew, although he jumped a bit too fast for me to get a proper photo. We soon got stuck in and made a big difference to the area in just 40 mins, it now looks a lot tidier.

Jogging approx. 2km back to base, the dark task in the churchyard had us feeling a bit spooky and so the talk turned to Halloween plans coming up in a few weeks. The task was also John's 50th (well done John!) so we enjoyed a little celebration with chocolate mini rolls to finish off the session. Can't think of a better way to spend a Monday evening. :-)
