Sunken Garden - Today

I joined an number of the residents and Michel Thiell from Groundworks today in the Sunken Garden. I must say at this moment in time i have a few aches and pains, but on the whole i really enjoyed it. Jose managed to get his  'alien ' box up, he informs me its like a bird box - but for Aliens ( or squirrels). There was a real togetherness of the group today - with a number of people saying they never expected to take part, but had thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Sylvia Turner, said she could smell the country, I informed her she was standing next to the horse manure - she said it wasnt that it was the smell of the soil. One of the residents started to do Thai Chi, and a family with a couple of Children who were passing stopped to chat - and the children naturally started to play in the space.  It seemed as though more people than ever passed by and stopped to chat, and give their support. A big thanks to Dorinda Montgomory for Co-ordinating today and Gilly Thornton and Mike OHara. Aside from the above , we got lots done, and we will be back on site next Saturday 1st Of March at 1pm for those of you who would like to come along , meet your neighbours, and help to make where we live a nicer place.
