Report title in celebration of Ness, who intrepidly stomped through the brambles, creating safe passage to the compost bin in the PARCs garden.

We certainly needed access, there were a huge number of weeds that needed our attention! Many hands made light work though, and the courtyard area of the garden was looking spiffing in no time! Conversations included the practical application of degrees, and then reminiscing about the long-closed night clubs of Portsmouth.

Laura and David headed through to the front garden area, and cleared another huge amount of weeds. This was a little trickier, as these ones were growing through concrete!

Commendable efforts, everyone, this peaceful space is now back in action.

We welcomed David to his first GoodGym session this evening - great to have you along! He certainly got stuck in with our task, helping to take down some shelving.

Meanwhile, Lucy, Richard and I joined Clare at the new unit to help put up the new Repair Cafe / Library of Things signage. Cue lots of scrabbling up and down ladders, then an emergency jig-saw break when we realised the sign was a little too long!

Back at the old unit, the rest of the team made great progress filling holes, taking down shelving and sweeping the floors. We finished up by taking a few bits and pieces across the new unit. Sinéad has reassured us that, despite appearances in the photos, she was not in drink whilst using a power tool!

So much achieved in such a short space of time - amazing work, everyone!
