I say we, but the bush lopping was entirely the mighty Jenny, but I get ahead of myself.

This evening started with meeting Markella for a document check (Markella, you will make a perfect GoodGym social visits member - and hope to see you at a task or our Christmas social soon!) We set off sharpish to tackle Maze Hill and a what we think was a 4km run to St Richard's - rather a long one for us but a good work out! Julian had already got to work by the time we arrived, weeding down the side of the church where we left off a few weeks ago. We split into two groups, one to continue weeding and the other to tackle a bush that needed cutting down to size. > Enter Jenny with her loppers*

A perfect task for flexing those muscles out after a day of meetings. This particular bush was tied into place and all twisted around itself but after half an hour of lopping it was a mere stump, ready to be dug out. One step closer to getting this area cleared for disabled access.

Meanwhile the other team were doggedly making their way further up the path, clearing brambles and weeds and laying down cardboard to prevent their return. We're almost at the top of the path now after a couple of sessions here - Look how far we've come since last the last group run here!!

Well done team. Next week we're at Glyndon and we've got our Christmas social on Sunday, looking forward to it!
