Goodgymers were back along the towpath tidying and clearing away the vegetation plus the usual litter picking. Jen tackled the litter which was mostly floating in the canal. More than usual this time as the recent floods had sent the rubbish down to our patch. With Alison and Pete from CRT, five bags collected. Nick, Ian, Gillian and Mohamed set about cleaning up the towpath. Between them and CRT Rich and Nick they worked hard. The path is now perfectly clean and tidy... what a cracking job ๐Ÿ‘ Today's shout out goes to Mohamed for clocking up a 12km run to our meet up point. Ian set off afterwards to walk back home. Great effort chaps! Thanks to Nick for the chocolate mini rolls ๐Ÿ˜‹
