Report written by Euclides Montes
3 full-sized Goodgymmers and two half-pint-sized Mini-Goodgymmers waded through the swampy lands of the St Mark's Churchyard in Wood Green for a very productive litter pick session.
Task Report From 9 year old Mini Goodgymmer
"We found a lettuce that turned out to be a nappy covered in sick from a baby who smoked cigarettes and watched Harry Potter films from a DVD in the Church. We also jumped in the mud. A lot. The end"
Nobody Likes A Soggy Bottom, or Shoes For That Matter
As the snapshot with some of things we found tonight from our Mini Goodgymmer above suggests, it was a particularly dirty and wet evening at the Churchyard in St Mark's. Helping to prove that nothing is sacred anymore, the yard seems to have been used as a dumping area over the cold dark months and it was in need of a proper clean. Enter our Goodgymmers.
Despite the waterlogged nature of the terrain, our adventurous explorers wasted no time in collecting the detritus left behind by what one of our Goodgymmers generously referred to as 'Right [REDACTED].'
Anyway, it was a soggy affair as it drizzled all the way through on an already moist crew but we persevered and after about an hour, we had managed to fill four green street sweeper bags between five of us! Not bad for a small squad, I'd say.
We made sure to finish before Low Mass started at the church but not before we posed for some holy, and some unholy, selfies.
We all then went on our way, with our Mini-Goodgymmers being treated to a very well earned post-task milkshake. All's well that ends well.
Come next week as we battled the elements again, this time at the Westbury Banks Nature Reserve.
