A bracing morning in the fog today, but 15 volunteers turned out to cut down invasive hawthorn on the chalk downland hilltop. We got two bonfires blazing to burn the cuttings, which had to be hauled down rain-slicked slopes riddled with rabbit holes. All in a day’s work and very satisfying, with a well-earned coffee sponge and shortbread at break time.
