Straight from our Barnet back-to-back Community Mission part. I, we arrived at Clitterhouse to the usual wonderful warm welcome of cream tea, hot drinks and a relentless canine with a gobby tennis ball. 🐶🎾

It was a busier-than-usual day there today, and for once GoodGym weren’t the most important visitors (imagine that..)

As ever things had changed a lot since we’d last been, not only with the change of weather, but with the remarkable momentum and gravity that it’s gaining, getting more and more people contributing. This time there was a new amphitheatre thing mate out of hay bales.

With hot drinks and scones onboard, we went off to the farm and got to work. Two of us tiptoed through the flowerbeds weeding, and two of us got stuck into the ivy creeping onto the premises from next door. It was somewhat delicate work, but we filled a couple of wheebarrows-worth, and dumped them away on a big pile of rubble and weeds, which curiously appeared to be the focal point of all the hay bale seating. Goodness knows, but I’m sure all will become clear next time were back there... 😋
