This week we were back at the Welling Library to finish off the weeding and litterpicking at the front and along the side of the building. Some of us ran a short distance to the task.

We had some new equipment in the form of secateurs and shears to aid us, and we had it all looking great in no time!

After tidying away we had the obligatory group photograph then headed to the pub to celebrate Sarah's birthday!

Another hot evening was upon us as we arrived at Welling Library where weeds and brambles had certainly taken hold despite the heatwave!

We soon got stuck in - Sophie collected litter while the rest of us tackled the plants and prickly brambles that had crept across the pathway alongside the building and the yard at the back.

Some of the weeds stuck to us - Alice actually had green fingers!

Well done to Sophie on her 10th good deed!

The time flew by and we bundled up the sacks of cuttings, put away the tools and headed to the Nags Head for a drink and some snacks.

Well done all! The before and after pics show what a difference we made!

Three of us headed to Welling Library tonight despite the very changeable weather conditions.

A big welcome to Nayomi on her first GoodGym task - great to have you with us!

Our periodic visits to the Library help keep the grounds neat and tidy, and it was definitely time for some TLC!

We got stuck in to litter picking and weeding - with thistles and nettles in abundance!

With lots of laughter and chatting the time absolutely flew by and the sun actually came out for our photo!

Nice work team, and thank you for helping make the area look better.

Next week is our monthly visit to Holy Trinity Lamorbey School where we'll be turning pallets into bug hotels 🐛🪲! We'd love to see you there.

After Susan staying in bed longer this morning and a call from Sarah we eventually all got together at the Welling Library for a good tidy up session.

It had been tipping down with rain but miraculously stopped once we got stuck into weeding, litter picking and sweeping the area to make it look respectable again.

It didn't take long to get the outside looking smart but a lot of rubbish was collected including lots of items on the bingo card! We all felt satisfied at our achievement!

Well done everyone who attended! It just shows how great you are!

Of course our reward was waiting for us in Devi's Corner with the obligatory coffees, hot chocolates and chat. A great way to spend a Sunday morning.

As the advertised task was cancelled late in the day we relocated to the Welling Library 📚.

It was a good job we did as it was totally overgrown again!

We all set to work with our secateurs and brooms 🧹. As you can see from the before and after pics we made it look perfect, ready for the public to enjoy in the morning.

We couldn't resist going for a drink and a snack after for Sarah's birthday 🎉 at Devis Corner ☕️🍺.

Words curtesy of Rod Stewart! What a lovely evening it was for tidying the Welling Library . I couldn't believe how much the weeds had grown including nettles! Simon had a great implement to remove them from the side of the building and we soon had it looking brilliant! We were sailing! After a last photo with the piled up sacks we made for home! Until next time.
