WELCOME TO THE BBC !! 12 lovely peeps
Croatia
In fact the best in the west from BATH, BRISTOL and CARDIFF for an 8.5 k run out and back on a scenic flat route along the Kennett and Avon canal to DRYARCH GROWERS and ORCHARD SHARE to create a safe pathway for next weeks WASSAIL ... Don't miss that group run, it is sure to be fun.
A slightly delayed start with Goodgym Cardiff heading towards St Johns church on arrival thinking it was BATH ABBEY but the less said about who was leading them in that direction the better.
A brief warm up to kick off with a headcount naming their favorite band - S club 7 and Steps ... now that is worrying but Matt saved the day with the WURZELS
THE TASK
Sheila was ready and to get us started in 3 groups and we made up time with a bit of looping back to remain contained as a group, just 7 minutes short of time.
THE SHOVELERS ( not a band ) laying a bark chip pathway at the start of the Wassail route.
THE CLIPPERS ( not a band either) cutting back trees and brambles to prevent a poke me in the eye height situation.
THE HOLE FILLERS ( now they could be a band to follow) filling in trip holes and removing slippery rotten apples from the wassail route.
We worked for an hour to create a safe pathway for next weeks Wassail ceremony and enjoyed a nice cuppa before heading back to the leisure centre for a well earned stretched out followed by a nice Sunday roast social.
JERUSALEM -DONE !! no choke
Ben is responsible for todays pun of the month.
Matt was on a mission to cycle off for a mission with Mary but hopefully no cake was consumed on site.
The best part of the day was Lucy pulling the compost toilet door and bring shown how to push.
THANKS EVERYONE FOR MAKING SUNDAY GREAT.
