Despite task leader Louise painting her car instead of the fence, the 5 lovely goodgymmers did a wonderful job of repainting the players walkway fence
With the full fence painted in no time- we put our brushes to one side and made our way down the dark lane back to our waiting transport home
Another task brushed off our list

the weather gods smiles on us today as 7 of goodgyms finest made their way to Holyport FC to strim/ prune/ pluck and cut all of the overgrown foliage at the club
Tony expertly wielded the strimmer and everyone else chose their own tools to complete the task at hand
Once our bushes were neatly trimmed we made our way home to rest until next time

A cold, but more surprisingly dry night welcomed 8 goodgymmers to Holyport FC for the G.O.A.T of all tasks- pothole filling!
Once we had assembled (like the good gym equivalent to the avengers) we collected our weapons of choice in the way of spades, forks and wheel barrows, and with torches leading our way made it to the pile of shingle in the dark.
In no time at all we had 3 wheel barrows (one with an exceptionally squeaky wheel) filled and commenced with the mission at hand
A short time later all pot holes were filled and we made our way back to the meeting point for cookies and pats on the back for another successfully completed mission!
Watch this space for the sequel!

3 Goodgymers made their way to Holyport FCs ground to help with the cutting back of hedges behind the goal
We met up with Holyport tsar Richard and Holyport mascot Rosie dog where we got all required tools and set to work in the appointed area
In no time at all we had completed the task and were rewarded with hot chocolate for all out hard work
Not a bad mornings work!

11 GoodGymers made their way to Holyport football club to help with painting the new tea bar and putting bark down in the very sodden car park!
A team of 5 kicked off the first half by painting the tea bar and had finished one side just as the rain really started to interrupt play
The remaining players, but by no means substitutes played a tremendous second half by putting down bark in the very boggy car park area which should make it a much more useable space for the club
Once we had finished these tasks, we put the tools away, washed out the paint pots and made our way to the side lines where we said our goodbyes and went home to get dry and warm!
Weather 1, GoodGym 2. (Tasks completed)

An ode to GoodGym by Nicola and Amy who took inspiration from Coldplay at Glastonbury
Look at those (GoodGym) stars Look how they shine for you With lots of jobs to do Like painting blocks yellow They came along And brought a dog for you Had lots of things to do Like painting blocks all yellow
Instead of being at Glasto, 8 GoodGym hero’s rocked up to Holyport FC where we set up camp and started on the long list of tasks
Amy was on the main pyramid stage painting her yellow brick road (steps) while others started on the blocks
Tony was in his element with a wide choice of gardening equipment, and proceeded to the Other stage where he strimmed his way round all areas in need of a good tidy up
The remaining GoodGymers took the legends slot and spent their time cutting back overgrown hedges and taking an abundance of grass cuttings from behind the goal area, depositing them in the earmarked area
Snacks a plenty were provided and once everything had been tidied up, we made our way back home to put our feet up. Until next time!
