(Literally) Directly from Italy with love, ... two-hours-delayed flight later … (grrr)…, I managed to arrive on time for our Tuesday group run to Manor Paddock House, a B&H council residential home in Kemptown with flats and bungalows and social activities including the management of a communal green area, nicely taken cared by its residents.
Our friend Luc welcomed us with well-prepared tasks to fit everybody, including the trimming of some grassland by new memberLucy who arrived on foot carrying a borrowed tool from the Brighton Tool Library. Welcome to newcomers Edel and Michael who followed me running, and Rob cycling, all happily swingling up and down local footpaths and parks in Kemptown before reaching our destination! Rebecca bit us on timing, digging already into a flower bed to make space for the new plants! Another fun evening that ended up with some gifted lavender to zest our return journey… just much colder than in Italy, and wet-ish… I guess the new plants will be happy 😊
