Blokes – we don’t like talking about our feelings do we? Luckily, because we provide a safe and secure environment, I was able to talk, and talk, and talk. This is what we do. Try and turn to the funny side of life and raise a smile, but understand the gravity of where each of us might find one another.

It was great to chat and also to get from Berrybanks all the way to the start, which is kind of where the cycle path along the Western Relief Road forks, with the greenway to the left and the cycle path on the right.

We just snipped back brambles reaching into the path and a few tree branches that had become heavy.

Loads of happy and chatty people along the way who all seemed to enjoy our efforts.

We have found our first area where we will be clearing out all the scrub in September. Mick identified about 25 wildflowers and because the ground has been disturbed recently with the building of the underpass, there will be loads more waiting to break free.

Next week we are putting up bat boxes that our great friend, Andrew, has made for us. There is also a weekender somewhere in the month so all welcome and all you need is decent footwear, good gloves and bring your own snipping tools so we are not passing stuff back and forth.
