The longest week

On Tuesday, at Hailesland Family Centre, the group finished construction on the maze for the mighty midgets. And also, we put the flower beds in position in order to allow the children another place to plant vegetables and flowers. Furthermore, we put bark in amongst the flowers and watered them.

On Wednesday, the group led by Gemma and Fatima ventured along the Water of Leith, where they were responsible for cutting down the vegetation and burning it in a bonfire. Apart from this, they also were cleaning the muddy Rocheid Path (of course, the btcv adventurers are getting used to the mud). At the end of the day, we improvised a cooker from the bonfire and had chocolate banana fritters and toasted marshmallows.

On Thursday, this was going to be the longest day of our lifes. We arrived at Poet's glen at ten o'clock and we comenced work on the bridge. It was half past three and we were still building the bridge. It was half past four and we were still building the bridge. It was half past five and suddenly we finished building the bridge and the week. Congratulations!!!

Fatima and the little help from Edinburgh.
