Tabitha Pete and Lisa met at Beer ' n Burger in Willesden Green. Welcome Lisa! whose first time it was at Goodgym Brent. We did a short warm-up before jogging to Kilburn Grange Park where we met up with Amy, Beatriz and Karen and AJ, our host. AJ provided us with gloves and tools and explained what we needed to do. We split into two groups, AJ, Pete and Beatriz went off to tackle the removal of a small dead tree in a garden planter while Karen, Lisa, Amy and Tabitha stayed in the park to collect fallen leaves. We hacked at the tree and were luckily joined by a neighbour Phil who provided us with his big saw, with that help the tree came down in no time. Meanwhile the girls in the park worked really hard and filled 4 huge plastic sacks with leaves, removing leaves from almost all of their area of park. We then dragged all the bags full of leaves and branches to the gardening tools area of the park where we left them for collection. Some of us then jogged / walked back to B n B others who lived closer jogged / walked home. A quick drink to refresh ourselves and collect things from B n B. Well done everyone.
