On a spooky crisp Halloween morning 5 brave GoodGymers headed to Canbury Gardens and the GoodGym flowerbed, The leaves were out in force hiding the the flowerbed so Levita and Cinthia sewpt them away from the font of the bed and bagged them up whilst Ellie tackled the leaves that had tangled themselves in the plants. Leaves cleared Julie joined us to plant the bulbs whilst Claire pruned and restaked the some of the plants.

Nice soft soil from the rain and many hands made it light work and we were finished in no time with the flowerbed blooming with later colour in the sunshine.

There's no calm and sedate watering session when we are involved as once Levita and myself had fetched, wheeled and carried to give these wonderful specimens their substanance we finished with our balancing act. I don't think we will be joining the circus anytime soon!

This evening we all convined to water the Gg flowerbed which we found to be so dry despite the rain we have had recently. leaves were also cleared.

This afternoon Levita and myself started the tidy up around the memorial to get it ready for all the veterans on their day next month, early start but still another visit to be done to finish off. We dug weeds out from the paving slabs and trimmed some of the plants around the trees and weeded them in that sacred area. We had a few passers-by stop and thank us for doing this, always nice to know how much it means to some people, it is a focal point of New Malden High Street.
