Well done to all of those who took part in today's Monday Miles - that was a scorcher!
Dave, Alice and I joined the Relay Your Way team for a quick 1km leg around Hilsea Lines. This was my first run back after injury, so the short distance seemed perfect... until I then had to run back again to collect the car as one of our team was very sweaty and grumpy post run - I'll let you guess who!! 😉
Katie made the most of Transition Day school run with a 9 mile cycle. Val walked 10km and somehow managed to resist an icecream, whilst Jane embraced a pub pit-stop on her 4-miler.
Our top distance today was covered by Judy and her pals over in Austria, who completed a 19km leg of the Lechweg Trail - and sent some beautiful photos.
As always with Monday Miles, it's not about the distance, just taking a little bit of time to squeeze some activity in to your day. Nice work, everyone!

I gave some of the young trees in Tamworth Park a good drink. These were the saplings we helped the Portsmouth Tree Wardens plant in February.

Success!! After an address error 🤦♂️ a couple of weeks ago we were able to help out Ms S today! 😁
Jane and I were asked to clear one side of the garden of weeds and rubbish. We then dug the dead leaves out of a pot and arranged the other planters in an aesthetically pleasing manner 🪴 These will take centre focus for Ms S photos to help sell her house 📷 During our cleanup we also swept the forecourt of the house as the pesky wind kept letting the leaves in! 🚪💨
We enjoyed a lovely chat whilst in the shade and then said our goodbyes.
The lovely selfie of us wouldn't upload so have a nice view of some Australian mountains near a parkrun of a Portsmouth GG-er ex-pat

She is looking to sell and is wheelchair bound so this will really help progress things without risk of hospitalisation

Congratulations to Andy for completing his 50th Good Deed this evening! I will do my best to locate the glamorous rosette for the next task!
We managed to complete two Good Deeds in just 90 minutes this evening, with both a leaflet drop for Fratton Community Centre and some planting and litter picking for Make.
The dry conditions over the past few weeks made the soil in the Make garden difficult to turn over, but Jane's trips to and from the pub next door to fill up our water bottles helped soften things a bit.
With a bit of team work and a few different approaches, we managed to uproot a very dense but very dead plant, and replace him with some donated geraniums, petunias and begonias. The area was already looking much better after some other supporters of Make had been planting, but hopefully the last little corner will be looking lovely and bright as our donations bloom.

The birds were singing and the butterflies fluttering - Baffins is looking great. Glad to say there wasn't much litter this morning.
