6 of Goodgyms finest gathered this Wednesday afternoon to help pondmaster Alex layer the edges of the pond with aquatic soil and move some huuuge heavy granite stones to the pond edge using various techniques such as rollers, the trolley and pure brute strength!

Amanda and Danielle focussed solely on the gruelling task of moving the aquatic soil from ghe gate to the pond for the whole 2 hours while Aziz, Ceiling, Paula and myself switched between the aquatic spil and the boulders.

Big thanks to the team of Aziz, Ceiling, Paula who are becoming froglike pond regulars! And big welcome goes to Danielle for travelling all the way from her home borough of Bexley to join us this afternoon - hope to see you again soon.
