Samuel met the BBOWT and Friends of The Millie volunteers at the usual meeting point and helped carry the equipment to 'base camp'.

The groups split into 2 subgroups, one group led by Karen went to coppice some trees further down the path, whilst Bob's group stayed on the reedbed to uproot the nettles and widen the water channels.

Jen was on a go slow this morning due to having pulled a muscle in her back and was also therefore on light duties. She arrived at the reserve, with her litter picker, about half an hour later and found the reedbed group. Some new tools caught her eye, that were apparently called Lazy Dogs to help with the uprooting.

Jen collected a couple of black bags and headed off to litter pick along the path, turning left first.

After tea break the two groups swapped over and Jen headed right along the path to continue litter picking. By the end of the session, several trees were coppiced, the channels were wider, nettles uprooted and 3 bags of rubbish collected.

All in all a good days work for a bunch of lazy dogs.
