Laura, Vicky and Max met Tracy at 6pm on the Foss Islands Roundabout. Laura and Max ran and Vicky popped round on her bike from work. The task was to clear a raised brick planter of brambles so the next set of volunteers can fill the planter with, er, plants... presumably. As it was rush hour and the planter was right on the entrance to the roundabout, we had a good lot of traffic going past and were encouraged by more than one motorist thanking us as they drove past.

We made fairly brisk work of cutting back the brambles and digging them out and then went off to enjoy our evenings.
