When Galleywall Nature Reserve arranged a Sunday afternoon Open Day, for once GoodGym was able to work there in the daylight. I helped clear a space to move a gazebo into. There were some earth-filled planters in the way but I removed the rotting wood surroundings, and shovelled earth into a wheelbarrow to clear the area.

After a busy hour, with many trips across the area to empty the wheelbarrow, I was offered coffee and cake and was told how appreciative the volunteers are of GoodGym's weekday efforts, using headtorches in the dark.
