Tonight was an evening of celebration.

We welcomed our newest member to the group Jessica

CROESO JESS

Another goodgym baby on the way, we can't wait to meet them Sophie.

And finally, introducing the new Lucy, now with wings....

Happy 100th Deed

Our walkers set off first, a direct route to the task, whilst Michael took the joggers on a slightly lengthened route to the task.

A nice evening for a run, with a good breeze. Once we arrived it was straight to work, the gloves out and the tasks explained.

It has been a while since we were last here, and the genes had certainly bounced back since their last trim. This was the first job for Lucy, to contain the growth and stop it encroaching onto the pathways.

Everybody else, over to the fence, it is time for a fence painting frenzy.

There was no stopping us, even a slight bit of rain fixing halt us. Thankfully the rain passed by quite quickly, so the painting continued along with the conversation of the task.

Have you got your own dabber?

Bingo, well that's the next social sorted then...

Lucy had moved on to dead heading roses and the painting crew had nearly finished the second large fence. No leaving until this parts complete. It was a quick run back, so we stayed on a little longer than usual in order to finish the fence.

Quick group photo, then off we popped.

Next week we head over to global gardens , join us for some active fun.

Another chilly evening saw a good group of 11 goodgymers meet up to get active and do good.

Tonight, we were jogging and walking over to St. James Community Centre, next to the very beautifully gothic Church. It was a short distance of just under 2km each way, but welcomed on the way back to warm up after the task. Our task, as the numbers were good, to help edge the lawn, sweep up leaves from the public path, remove the larger weed growth in between the paving slabs and then came the burning.....man

As the joggers and runners arrived first they were given first choice, Dylan and Rosie took up the flame throwers (well not quite, health and safety and all that!), Darren was on edge with the trusty spade, Martin and Will went out into the darkness to sweep up the leaves, Sophie, Llion, Catherine, Flo and Neda got on with removing the weeds from the slabs.

It was 30 minutes of cold, hard work, whilst the strange Tesla car flashing it's light at us, let us know that it had nearly achieved consciousness.....Michael did not like this particular car, nor did they trust it!

Moving on, photos galore and a good chat as we all caught up with the weeks gone by, and it was soon time to down tools and head home.
