Monday morning's session went well and the delivery arrived. All went in ready for BFc on Tuesday.

The bushes bit back as we returned to the Crystal Palace Water Tower 💦🗼 to discover that, despite our best efforts to remove the soil over the past 2 years, nature found a way.

We met at Bridge House on a hot day 🔥, but not too muggy and starting to cool off, ready for a run. This week's question - what's your favourite Olympic sport 🤸 to watch? Paris 2024 having begun to grace our screens from the start of the weekend, we had a diversity of answers from aquatics to gymnastics to archery.

With introductions done, we powered around the park 🏃 on Crystal Palace Park Road, climbing the steep hill (though less steep than the direct routes!) and reaching around the top to drop into the water tower (figuratively), where we met John and the news that we had our work cut out for us 🧑‍🌾

However, the weeds weren't deep rooted and the soil was ill, so they came out really easily and we did a lot in the allotted time. We bagged up our work and dragged it out, and said goodbye to John.

The run down was through the centre of the park with a beautiful evening view of Bromley and Bexley, veering off and round the south side of the park back to Penge.

John was really pleased with our efforts and we'll be back next week to carry on 💪

Three GoodGymers arrived at BFC to help Erina and a couple more BFC volunteers with their first delivery of the day.

There were a variety of tasks to be done while waiting, including cleaning up the veg trays and the fridges, packing up bread and cous cous, and tidying up the shelves so that the items from next delivery of the day can fit in.
