This evening's run was looking like a soggy affair a few hours before but fortunately the weather gods were smiling on us - not only was it dry and clear but bordering on warm as well. Has Spring sprung?
Our regulars Mark, Tilly and Michael met at Papa's with Jo scheduled to meet us on our way to Holy Trinity. This evening's category was favorite fiction book with shouts for Life After Life, Devil in a Blue Dress, The Count of Monte Cristo and non fiction History of Britain.
After a nice 4km flat run to HT we were met by Nicole and Adam alongside James (Father Nature) who was taking us through the planting of an Apple Sunset tree in a giant tractor tyre. First up the group needed to wade into the mud to level the tyre itself and then fill it with loose bricks and big rocks and then the fun really began. It was soil shiftin' time with many barrow loads of soil being loaded at the bottom of the hill and then run up the track to the tyre to fill it.
The group did a great job with many tens of barrow loads coming up the hill then being unloaded into the tyre which left only one thing to end the session - to plant Ivy's new apple tree! What a lovely moment to end the session on. Check out the photos and we can't wait for the summer party to enjoy the outdoor space and welcome in the new hall.
Thanks to all and see you next time :0)
