After an urgent quick fix last Tuesday, this evening was part two of sorting out the former water tanks turned into planters at the station.

They had been knocked off their bricks during work being done nearby. Back on bricks the target tonight was to make sure they were stable and safe for planting again.

So the muscle crew assembled, gathered some wood for support, slid the smaller planter aside over the wood, rearranged the bricks and moved the planter back in position. Luckily the big one was already stable, it might have been a bit too heavy for the 2 of us!

Task done, we headed off for a relaxed walk / jog, James kindly going easy on still recovering me.

P.S. since both of us had our hands full, no action pics - a few nature shots from our run instead.
