Report written by Michael
It was our last visit to the wonderful folk at 'Forget me Not' to tackle the last part of the buddleia. We had not been able to complete it during our last visit, as it had grown to such new heights in all its glory.
A lovely short run from Big Moose in the City Centre to our second pick up at the Penylan Library for those wanting a shorter distance this week. From there it was a lovely trek through Roath Brook Gardens to the grounds of the Church.
We arrived a little early tonight, so plenty of time to catch up before getting to work. We were greeted by Kathie which was Michael's signal to get the group to work. We were determined to finish the task this week, with an added job of trimming back the overgrown hedges in the back lane.
As the (large) branches were removed the group got to cut them down further to fit in the garden waste bags. Our lights were extremely useful for tonight’s task during the dark nights.
At last, the task was complete, and it was time for a quick photo before heading out for a social.
We provide a safe, friendly space for people to meet, have musical entertainment, play table tennis, play draughts, chat, colour, do some art and now wish to extend to provide gardening as therapy. To the latter end we need to clear out a cellar of various bits of rubbish and make it into a storeroom for pots, gardening equipment etc.
