Tonight's task was a relatively simple tidy and weed affair but did require some logical thinking. Luckily we had Kat's engineering brain / stone walling knowledge on hand.

Vicki gets an extra gold star for turning up with cold water straight from the fridge and some cups. What a hero!

We had to work around donated bikes (for incoming Ukrainian families), floor matting, chairs, a slide and lovely smells of spices from the pantry.

Vicki started off down the side alleyway and everyone else eventually ended up down there too except for Maura who was determined to try and get the weed roots up using a pair of scissors!

A good amount of team work meant that the courtyard and side alleyway are free from weeds and rubbish (for the moment!) & everything being stored outside is a bit more organised.

Good work GoodGym!
