It was nice to have ten Goodgymers meet at the care home this month for the quiz ,plus James and Chloe brought Goodgyms new recruit along there baby daughter which was nice to see plus the residents loved to see her.It was nice to be able to have Three teams. I must thank Keith for doing a round which was pub names cricket where if the name of the pub was an animal you had to guess how many legs the animal or animals had,this was fun.In total we had 4 rounds,Keiths round a picture round a spelling round plus a round on sweets.Everyone enjoyed themselves which is what its all about.The scores where very close,The Loose Women had 29, No Idea had 31,but the winners where The Outsiders with 34 so it was all very close.Thank you all for coming along and making it a good evening.

Daryl and Janet met Poppy and Camilla from Creative Kids to help them put up their gazebo, ready for summer clubs. After working out which gazebo we needed from the storage room, we moved it out into the roof of the shopping centre. Then it was a matter of teamwork, with each of us taking a leg and hoisting it into position. Camilla claimed not to know how to put the gazebo up but we soon realised she knew a lot more than she was letting on. After we’d decided on the best height for the kids, we made sure all was clicked into place and added some weights to make sure it didn’t disappear in the wind overnight.

This month 4 Goodgymers meet at the care home with the task of quiz master being handed over to Daryl .We had four rounds on Trousers,The Blair years, Shakespeare and words again on which had a question about Latin and one on German there was even a question on France so the quiz was very international.The scores where very close with the knowledge Bakers winning by one point they got 25 and the Loose Women had 24 so very close indeed.We shall do it all again next on the second Monday so i hope to see you all then if not before.

Oops… the World and his Wife descended very early on the beach today, so that us Goodgymmers combined with a few Bournemouth Ploggers decided to stay well clear of that crazy area. And yet there was still plenty enough to litterpick: a sink (?), a wrench (yay, for being useful to Harry) and two bicycle frames were among the unusual stuff. For the rest: yes, butts (!!!), cans, bottles, tissues, sweet wrappers…. The chine, the viewpoint, the car park and some surrounding roads were scoured by the nine of us. Plenty picked, lots sweated, so a cool drink and icecream in Keith and Lea’s garden was very welcome. Thank you everyone for turning up on this crazy “walk over the heads beach” day. I will try and be more careful when planning our next litterpick!!! Council has been informed of the flytipping pile, 🤞 they have time to remove it!
