The people at the Waterloo Street Community Garden are always pleased to see us, and last night was no different. They put us straight to work cleaning up the space, sweeping away leaves, deadheading, and weeding.

We were armed with sweeping brushes, secateurs, and a dustpan and brush (Tom was doing a brilliant job with that last one!). Charlotte and Sarah even brought their own weeding tools along and put them to great use. We even encouraged a local to join our efforts for a bit, and we gained some great local restaurant recommendations from him!

As the light levels dropped, foot traffic to the nearby Old Market started to increase (Chris Difford from Squeeze was playing, apparently), so we packed up and headed home.

We managed to save 30+ sandwiches, 3 baguettes, 30+ pastries, plus other treats to turn Good quality unsold food in a feast for the ChoirWithNoName Brighton, celebrating their 7th birthday with a flash mob gig in the Open Market, Brighton Station and Band Stand.

It was a great fun baking homemade muffins alltogether while rehearsing the songs that Amanda and Stefania also performed with the choir on the day, including:

*Times Like These - Foo Fighters:

It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these, time and time again*

Happy birthday ChoirWithNoName!

The choir is invititing us to their next open rehersal on Monday 8th October - Are you coming?
