It was a game of two half yesterday. Starting proceedings off we were tasked with a bit of planter building for the folks of Wood Street South Gardening Club. A few mishaps along the way, hampered our progress as we lacked the necessary tools and materials to complete the task. Nevertheless, our resourceful A-Team of volunteers pulled together and with what we had still managed to assemble a planter and to transport a significant amount of soil into place ready for us to hit the ground running next week when we return to continue this project.

After this cold comfort, we all dashed back to the more salubrious surroundings of Mirth Marvel and Maud for our much anticipated and richly deserved Christmas party. Thanks go to Clara and Pippa for organising such a fab night and even preparing an award ceremony that beautifully punctuated the evening. Thanks also go to the mega generosity of Raymond and Ercole who lavished us with drinks!

I'm not sure how this evening ended, but I left a merry crowd at about 10.30 pm, so I hope there are a few sore heads today.

We are back at the same task next week although I will check ahead with a few stipulations to make sure they are ready for us. Sign up here and see you there
