.... I'd already mentioned to Mark that my way to get round pun anxiety was to wait for him to write the run report from the first part of the Community Mission and then neatly add 'part two' onto it. Cop out? Absolutely.
As Mark mentioned, Crown Dale Medical Centre is getting a big overhaul with a massive extension so the planters needed to be emptied of soil before they could be moved. Team 1 had done a great job so we only had two full planters to tackle and some muddy dregs in the other three (we soon realised hands were better tools for this than the shovels, my finger nails didn't thank me!).
After lots of lovely chats about Bake Off, the best of Netflix, zoom quiz fatigue (mainly me),lockdown walks and Christmas plans all planters were empty. The last few minutes were spent covering the soil pile in tarpaulin. Rumour has it that was to protect it from cat poo (may or may not have been true!). We then covered it with some planks of wood and an old chair. Which we joked could be a Covid friendly waiting room for the new surgery! Picture of that masterpiece in Marks report (he's really carried the report situation).
The most lockdown fun i've had in weeks, thank goodness for GoodGym.
