This Saturday, we ran, cycled and walked back to Russell Square to keep helping the Russell Square gardening volunteers with planting bulbs for the Spring. We tried to make a start on this about a month ago, but the ground was far too hard. This time, we'd had a lot of rain to make the task easier. A few people had to head off to another community mission in Islington, while the rest of us stuck around for longer (some staying for a social, but socially distant, lunch in the pub, courtesy of one of the local hotels which has been supporting the volunteering effort. We've made a dent in the 10,000 bulbs, but there are still more to plant, so stay tuned for another Saturday community mission at Russell Square next week.
