4 keen GoodGym'ers met bright, and very early for a Sunday, at 8am to tackle Mr and Mrs C's garden for the second time. Mrs C met us at the door and directed us to her very spacious garden and well equipped shed. Having all chosen our weapon of choice, we set to work. An hour of strimming, digging, chopping and general sweating and 8 or so full bags later, we were able to see the dirt from the weeds and unveil Mrs C's lovely rose bushes. However, alas, our time was soon up and the task not complete. Fingers crossed it is a case of, third time is the charm!
