It's nice to do goodgym with friends, but sometimes solo is the one. There was a lovely bunch from the Friends of Kelsey Park but I mostly just stuck by myself this time, at one with the brambles.

The task was to remove brambles that were tangling themselves up with the other plants and taking them over a bit. So armed with a pair of seccateurs (never know how to spell that word), I got as close as I could to the base of the brambles, putting them off growing more.

It was suuuper satisfying yanking down the really long ones that had reached up around the tops of the trees and I actually only got spiked a couple of times.

It's a bloody beautiful park, even in the rain (see pic), and was so nice to get out in some greenery for an hour.
