Bristol Report written by Dushyant Goel
Removing brambles and buttercups from the cemetery - it's a dead serious business. I reached the cemetery at 9:00 and found Melanie, Di and M removing weeds. We cleared the path around a few plots.
We de-flowered the buttercups - its seed got everywhere and it was a pain to get it off our gloves and clothes. The brambles put up resistance at being pulled but we nipped them at the root.
Di showed us pictures of the space from a decade ago. Looking at the overgrowth I could appreciate her grave concerns.
The sun had been hiding behind the clouds and came out just as we were finishing. Looking at the the cleared graves in bright sunlight lifted our spirits. We collected up the brambles and green waste and laid them to rest, at a convenient place for gardeners to collect.
It was totally worth digging in. With a few more session we will bring the place back to life.
Thanks, Dushyant

Brilliant first report, Dushyant! You’re definitely in the right group for demonstrating your pun-work 😁

It really was a (was a was a was a) knife evening. We set off sharply. The blade runners and knife walkers arrived… We picked through every blade… of grass. We carved through the park like a hot knife through butter. We… I give up with the knife puns now. We didn’t get all the litter but I’ll get to the point and cut to the chase…
Thanks for helping write the report everyone, this will only make sense to us. For some added information we went to Spith Street park and Dame Emily park and did some litter picking 👀
What a first session for Michael.
Shanks for the memories.
Until next time…
