This week we were back to join Elaine on Park Lane for a mammoth weeding session.

We have been working on this sight through thick and thin, contending various weeds at different times of year. This time, it was the turn of the thistle and the site had become somewhat overrun with them.

Thankfully we had a fabulous team of 11 goodgymmers to wage war on them!

In no time we had cleared the majority and left the site in a much better state. Well done everyone!
