Six goodgymers looked out the window today, saw rain, and decided that wasn't enough to stop them showing up to do another deed at the Brixton Windmill! And good thing too, because after spending 10 minutes with a cup of tea inside the clubhouse the rain subsided to allow us to get on with our task.

The numbers steadily grew as Sarah and Joao drifted in from having been to other tasks. A few of us - Tracey, Michael, Caroline (a Windmill volunteer) and I - cleared one of the beds and began to plant spinach, lettuce and ...? (forgive my memory please!).

Sarah and Clare planted some bulbs on the grass by the Windmill. Looking forward to seeing those sprout later! They then got to work with Michael and Joao clearing leaves around the park.

Exellent work from the team. We will be back in December to help the Windmill team set up for their Winter fair (ft. Santa's Grotto). 🎅
