I met Simon at the usual time this Saturday and today I was on a solo act!!! Despite missing the company of Goodgym crowd, Simon and his volunteers always bring joy and enthusiasm. On top of that, they had coffe and tea to give us a boost for the task ahead.

After clearing some wood sticks from the garden and removing wood table tops it was time for the big one. This afternoon's task was fixing the sail shade gazebo. The recent downpours and strong winds tested shade's suppports, today we had an old fashioned DIY task :)

Simon ensured for everyone's safety when handling the tools and after climbing up and down the ladder several times, mission accomplished!! The gazebo shade was erect again and ready the winter to come.
