Inglorious Batters

Wednesday 29th April

Written by Laura

Tonight was our spring social & what great weather for it!

We ran straight to OWLS allotments where we spent around 40 minutes weeding & moving compost. We worked fast so that we could get to the park for our game of rounders. We got into two teams of 9/10 people & started the game. I don't think we 100% stuck to the rules but no one cares, we just have fun with it! We all had 3 bats each & I'm proud to say our team won with a score of 10 & a half to 8 & a half rounders. Well done gang!

We then headed to the pub for food & drinks. Poor Shannen got asked for ID so couldn't buy her alcohol free beer (yes really)...I'd take it is a compliment Shannen!

Welcome to Lydia on her first session, we hope to see you again soon. Thanks also to Erica for bringing everyone she knows to GoodGym:)

Thanks for a great evening all!

Saturday 25th April

Written by Laura

Today, in glorious sunshine we headed to Bedford Fields to build a new greenhouse. Helen followed the instructions & I was her assistant:)

I brought my two little dogs but it was a little hot for them & they were desperate to be the centre of attention as usual.

It's not a goodbye, it's a see you later!

Wednesday 22nd April

Written by Laura

Tonight we said goodbye to our friend Christian who's moving back to Nigeria. Where will we be without our very own GoodGym Leeds superman, the fittest of us all, the hardest working, photo dodging, fruit eating machine?! Christian, I speak for all of us when I say we're going to miss you so much! We look forward to hearing about your new journey wearing your Yorkshire flat cap!!!

We ran to Left Bank tonight to wash many wedding chairs. The production line worked with everyone washing, Adam steaming, Katie & I drying & Helen organising it all! Then we got to finish off with a pint & present giving ceremony for Christian. He got his flat cap, Yorkshire mix sweets & tea bags as well as a card with pictures of all his best bits!

It was great to welcome so many newcomers too. Joao, Sourav, Jacob, Amara & Sarah thanks for coming & we hope to see you again soon.
