From six corners of Waltham forest we made our way to Leyton Parish Church (also confusingly called St Mary's ( armed with our garden gloves and energy in abundance to cover a path with fresh woodchip that the church had sourced for free from the local council. Mel and James (I hope that's his name) provided tea and tools (tea before task? We will definitely be back!!) and then we set to. Some loaded the wheelbarrows, some raced it up the path and deposited it some raked it evenly along the path. We amused ourselves with tongue twisters like 'how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood' By happy chance the daylight faded to evening just as we finished and we all disappeared into the night basking in a GoodGym glow of another task well done.
