Our Monthly Walk Together Session in conjunction with Ramblers last night was certainly overshadowed by the eclipse!

However it was a really nice session where we walked through War Memorial Park where Tazmin brought out their trusty colander and some tissue paper for our first attempt at viewing the eclipse.

As we didn't get a clear view of it there both Luke & myself decided to periodically look at the sun to see it with our own eyes, and so far we aren't yet blind.

We continued from there through to the amphitheatre in the Lime Pits where we joined a hundred odd people sitting on the grass enjoying the stunning weather and enjoyed the show.

IT was a very nice evening filled with fun chats and good times

We had a great crew at this weeks session, vibes started high with the music going and setting off from the Social Club.

Luke was back for his second session and it was lovely seeing everyone else as well!

We were super productive filling 6 bags of litter from around Kings Furlong up towards Brookvale, unfortunately we didn't find any underwear for national underwear day, but we did find a cache of moldy bread, empty engine oil and a shopping trolley which Yazid naturally got into.

Last night we were back to our roots and did our first litter pick for a long time, and more importantly got back in the playground!

While it was a hot day it thankfully cooled in the evening and there was a great breeze to make it overall a very nice evening.

We had Luke join us for his first session and he immediately fit right in and had a great work effort.

We left the Social club with Sammi & Tazmin down towards the King of Wessex where we were meeting Yazid and picked up litter on the way.

We are starting to get famous in the area as we were recognised and thanked for all the work that we do. From the King of Wessex we went up the hill down to the school and then under the A30 towards Kingsmill.

While we collected plenty of rubbish Basingstoke is looking very tidy and we went long stretches unable to find any rubbish.
