A Pot-tastic Day at the Farm

Saturday 15th August

Written by Andrada

Today’s mission was to tackle the drawers of pots at the back of the tool shed, clearing and organising them to make the pots much easier to access. It was a surprisingly satisfying task, with one wheelbarrow ending up completely full of dust — a clear sign of a job well done!

Afterwards, we went to see the piglets, goats and the new calves, with plenty of animal appreciation and stroking. A productive and enjoyable session, combining a bit of farm organisation with some well-earned animal time.

Run, eclipse, trim, ice cream, pint, home

Wednesday 12th August

Written by Lindy Macfarlane

Jam packed evening for goodgym Southwark - a sweaty 3km run from Old Spike to Old Alleynian in time to catch the solar eclipse.

Some novel methods to watch it were attempted including a holy hat and a pasta spoon.. Thank you to David for packing spare glasses so everyone could get a glimpse!

After the EXCITEMENT of the eclipse we helped Ian with trimming the pavement side hedge.

Then onwards for some well deserved ice creams at Oddono's and crispy cold pints at the Actress.
