On the ball and in de-fence

Eleven Goodgymers braved the weather and made their way to meet Paul at Active 360 at Kew Bridge.

We gave a big hello to Marieke who was completing her first mission with GGHounslow......so we did what we do best and gave her some baked treats courtesy of Michelle to try and entice her into becoming a Hounslow regular ( sorry Ealing) after devouring some delicious banana flapjacks it was time to "get trashy"

We split up into socially acceptable groups and got work, We had some balls for sure and poor Luis and Alanna even got crabs. Michelle didn't just sit in the fence but literally dragged it from the river with the help of Andy, great team work. It wasn't long before the eleven of us had managed to fill countless buckets of rubbish and bags of recycling. It never fails to amaze us just how much stuff ends up on our shorelines and in such a short space of time.

We may not ever manage to get rid of all the debris but you know what they say......

"every litter helps"

After over an hour of plogging and feeling very soggy, muddy and cold it was time to retire to our favourite watering whole for a beverage or 2...........

"Did someone say Beveragino??"

Great work team, hopefully see you again in a couple of weeks to do it all again.
