Good “Thyme” Weeding

Six GoodGymers came along this week to help do some weeding at St Timothy’s Church, Liden. This was timely too, as it’s Mental Health Awareness Week and all about getting closer to nature to help us all feel better.

But it wouldn’t be so much fun without a deluge of rain, would it?! 🌧 We met up and greeted our new recruit, Martyn. (Unfortunately the other new member, Jacqui couldn’t make it this time as she had injured her foot - get well soon Jacqui!).

Glad to see Gina and Tracey had come suitably equipped. Gina with her trusty “milking stool” and Tracey with her very handy kitchen fork! 🍴 Both proved invaluable items as we forged on in the rain and cleared the block paving of weeds.

The sun did appear briefly as we worked and chatted about long runs, the return of parkrun, our jobs during Covid, social meetings, etc. (Yes Helen is planning a GG Social soon!). Alex and Becky then ran off into the sunset on their journey home.

It is great to get together and do “normal” things again!
