Don't stop de-weedin' hold on to the feelin'

5 GoodGymers arrived at a new venue, St Timothy’s Church in Liden where we were met by the lovely Cheryl (from St Paul’s) for some clearing of weeds and growth from between the paving slabs around the church. Cheryl explained that the church and social area have remained closed since lockdown and they are currently reviewing how they can safely reopen following Covid guidelines. As part of this they are looking at a one way system and the GoodGym team were called upon to clear the trip hazards from the pathways in order for this to happen. As is becoming the new ‘normal’ there was a nice steady drizzle in the cool night air but we all got stuck in with the usual GoodGym gusto and body torches to tackle the weeds and growth to the ground. Kind hearted Tracey rescued a worm that may or may not have lost its head or tail but we all concurred that worms regrow themselves so now there would be two!! Kirsty had us all drooling when she ordered her Chinese takeaway ready for when she got home, we weren’t at all jealous especially when Cheryl produced a tray of chocolate brownies that her Mum had kindly made for us. Cheryl was very impressed and most pleased with what a few of us had achieved in a short amount of time and we left with a good feelin' that we'd made a huge difference.
