Fantastic sunshine for the first Group Walk/Run since the clocks went forward for British Summer Time and we were making the most of it at Brunswick Cemetery whilst the ground (and gravel) were dry. All after the prunners (the prun being the pre-run run) arrived finishing off their ice creans after a harbour loop/photo shoot.

Many hands and a few trowels and forks made light work of the "finding the spiral path AGAIN" task, hoping that the new Council mowing system of not leaving all the clippings and seeds on the mown grass will make a difference this year. We can hope - at least the gravel had dried enough the grass and other weeds were easy to pull out!

Meanwhile, Harsheh and Darren werr putting the root puller to good use taking on the bramble roots between the tombs.

With lots of progress in the Cemetery, it was time for the runners and walkers to head back to Queen Square and on to Pho (now pronounced Fuh, not Fe) for much good food and company.

Spring is here!

A gorgeous morning for not just clearing lots of weeds but actually planting things - rescuing some from other places in the Cemetery or from other spaces we help in - sharing the love (and pulling out the buttercups and brambles). Perfect 👌

Another Monday morning of making the space a good bit tidier and really making a difference compared to a couple of years ago - you can actually see the plants!

There was still frost on the ground that the sun hadn't yet seen so working further down the cemetery was the plan.

Loads of buttercups, brambles and bindweed bashed in the sunshine this morning.

A surprisingly bountiful morning of bagging brambles, buttercups and bindweed plus transplanting nice grasses and geraniums to the empty spots - we’re never short of places that need clearing!

Having rescued so laurel saplings (plus a mystery tree and a holly) from Ashton Court Free-Rangers o Thursday, it was great to have an opportunity to get them replanted today just 24 hours later. With rain due, it was the perfect opportunity for a quick tidy up before a falafel lunch reward.
