The Friends’ Big Lunch took place on the day after the carnival, with a BIG thank you to Paulette from the Meadows estate who did much of the organising. She managed to persuade a good crowd of around 20 people to come along despite the weather. Like the day before, the rain did not deter the Friends. We had arranged for the Ecology Centre to be open in case of rain, and the cover was was much needed. There was a huge amount of food on offer to share, ranging from chicken to sausage rolls to frittatas to sandwiches, to biscuits with mascarpone on top. And not much of it was left at the end of the afternoon for the staff of the Ecology Centre to tuck into on Monday! Following the success last year of the Big Lunch swingball competition and Mitcham Common’s first unofficial Test Match, (see Magpie 89 here) a competitive rounders game was organised. It was too wet and the grass too long to make the game a possibility on Mitcham Common itself, but several players made a journey to a new venue in Pollard’s Hill to play their game. This is the second successful Big Lunch event the Friends have organised and we hope to have many more in the future. It’s always great to meet so many new people and share food and stories about the Common. Pictures, from the top: 1. The Big Lunch crowd in the Ecology Centre 2.

Some had survived and other patches of the beds had perished by 2014 as a result of poor planting choice and potentially poor soil. The estate won some funding from the Merton Megarecycle in 2014. The funding was to be used to improve the environment, and so the estate residents committee decided that the best use of the winnings was to repopulate empty patches in the garden beds. Following a interest group event in September 2015 during our first community party, the community came together in November 2015 and took part in 'The Big Plant Out'. The majority of volunteers were living on the estate, but we also had some help from some very kind individuals from Commonside East.
