Holly, Mary, and Rob spent the evening helping the young trees deal with the heat! A little miscommunication in timings gave us the chance to have a half hour fitness session before the mission... A chance we did not take up, and instead sat on a bench admiring multiple dogs (Mary very nearly got away with taking one specific spaniel home). After falling in love with a range of different dogs we met Sally from Bath council and got on with the task. The trees were surrounded by overgrown grass which needed to be removed and filled with mulch to give the trees a much needed break from the nasty grass. Brickfields park was teeming with dogs and humans whilst we worked under the evening sun. This gave us the chance to have some great chats with the nice dog owners, as well as hide in the tall grass when the not so nice dog owners wanted a chat... A fantastic evening with great company! (apart from the one person who informed me how many times they'd wrote to the council about the trees...)
