We delivered another 2 missions at Raynes Park Station today, assisting the Friends of Raynes Park Station. While a contingent of our finest were 'inducted' into the mysteries of station training, our seasoned veterans got straight to work: shoveling compost and embarking on a bucket relay up to Platform 3's planters.

We were rooting for extra hands post training, and wouldn't you know it, our timing was impeccable. Just as the trainees completed their session, the compost bag was emptied and the final bucket delivered to the awaiting planters.

Thanks to everyone who made it along - we really did prove that many hands make light work and have helped ensure the planters will be completed very soon.

Four GoodGymers rolled (on bikes) into Squirrels community scrapstore's yard. Inspired by Rufu's bold promise to Barbara that the place would be unrecognisable by the time they were done, the team embraced the challenge.

Despite the warm weather seemingly "cementing" the weeds stubbornly into the concrete, we diligently scraped, pulled, and swept the area, making short work of the tenacious growth and even banishing the lingering dead moss. The impressive collective effort resulted in a satisfying haul of 3 crates of weeds, a bag of rubbish, and a clear yard. But this is just the start as there are a couple more spots to tackle on a return visit.
