The rain had cleared in time for our litterpick at Baffins!

We met some lovely animals on our walk round: dogs, squirrels, rats, waterfowl and butterflies.

I'm jealous that Dave also saw a beautiful fox cub enjoying the sunshine.

The Portsmouth Tree Wardens were super quick this morning. They had arrived early and already given the trees a very good drink - 25 litres each when I got there.

So, I helped load the cars and then did a litterpick afterwards.

Four GoodGymmers had a lovely time delivering 34 pizzas 🍕 to QA hospital on behalf of the charity Sophie’s Legacy. Thank you to nurse Grace 👩‍⚕️ for escorting us.

We missed Katie and her van 🚐 tonight! The pizzas and trolley didn’t all fit in the boot, so Jane had to hold on to some on the back seat, thanks to Lisa for the photo and run report pun! 🤣

Pizzas delivered and children and parents were very happy to receive them.

Jen, Dave, Alice and I joined the Portsmouth Tree Wardens to water the very many young trees at the Cascades Tree Nursery.

First we helped set up a production line to fill the watering cans from the 100 litre tank and lined up & tipped the cannisters to fill the tank.

We watered, did a little litter pick and relocated a family of snails who had taken up residence in a watering can. Jen and Dave showed great balance and agility by standing on the wall to water the hard-to-reach trees.

I gave 12 young trees a good drink this morning (5 litres each) on behalf of the Portsmouth Tree Wardens 🌳

A lovely start to the day.
