Well, it was a flipping marvelous day for a spot if running, weeding and drinking (Eastville Park's Elderflower Cordial).

The sun was shining when we set out from Mud Dock and made our way to Eastville. This was one of our longer runs and everyone absolutely smashed it!

When we got to the park we picked up our shovels, trowels, brooms and wheelbarrow's and set about around the perimeter of the lake removing weeds whilst being careful not to dislodge the stones. The Eastville Park heron does not like errant stones in his lake.

Fi arrived a bit later, having only managed to rescue a frightened and screeching parakeet (double good deed or new badge worthy for sure!)

Once we had made our way around the lake we gathered back to say our farewells and congratulate Shreena on achieving both her 50th good deed and anither year of life!

I hear there was also some excellent cake at Mud Dock :)
