Love Southend - Day 4 & Day 5

I'm sorry, it's actually the 8th of August now (I've been to Faith Camp (more on that in later posts).

Not too much was really said in these meetings, it was mostly rounding up what we had done. On Thursday I spent working in another church (Southchurch Park URC) - hehe we were meant to tidy the garden of bindweed, this church has a front garden which to us (me and 2 15 year olds) looked fine, and a back which looked hideous. It had a bindweeky-type substance on the ground, but we were told the job would only take about 1/2 an hour, now this job was going to take more than half an hour more like the whole day. We started on this job clearing away and slogged away (oh yeah, it started to rain for 2 or 3 minutes) and eventaully had to phone Jacky about needing black sacks. After a bit, (me and Kat were clearing the back and putting it into the sacks - Jacky had found the bindweed in the front we were supposed to clear). Jack spoke to the person we were doing the job for, it turns out me, Kat and Becca Churchward had cleared the wrong place (we were meant to have done the front - which we did - and not the back), they were going to clear the back on Saturaday. heheh They were very pleased with what we'd done though and it's pretty funny when you think about it.

Friday was the fun day at Cluny Square, it went pretty well. Me and a group of others spent most of it filling water balloons and transporting them (in my car) to the fun day. Lots of kids showed up (a few from Hamstel) - it went very well and from what I've heard quite a few went to the beach bash (I was at Faith Camp when it was on).
