Louise and Dan arrived first and did a litter pick while the rest of us arrived later from various possibly further away parkruns.
Me, Tanya, Debbie, Matty and Phil started shoveling gravel from the Urban Green truck on to parts of the path which were now big puddles to fill in the holes in improve the path surface for park users. The lads got really competitive and we're trying to beat each other which made it faster.
Louise and Dan after litter picking set up to work sawing up a tree fallen which was near the side of the path and was stopping the grass from being mowed.
When the gravel ran out we had a tea break which Dan and Louise worked through as they where leaving at half past. The rest of us started chopping the last of the the wood and moving the big pieces into the woods to make a bug hotel.
Keep an eye out for the next urban green task tomorrow and in three weeks.
Thanks Tanya for the excellent pun!
