Three Goodgymers meet a the foot of Durley Chine to do a litter pick as this area after a nice weekend is always bad.We found the usual bottles and plastic classes but to my amazement i found a house brick on the beach .We soon had three bags full so we put them in the bin and said our good byes and headed home.

Four Goodgymmers, Roger, Daryl, Keith and Lea, turned up at the Pine Cliff Gardens to do a job that their regular volunteers found too hard…. Right, sounds like the perfect task for us Goodgymmers! It started with a bag full of shears that had to be taken out of the back of a car. One of their volunteers suggested we each grab one or two to take down the steps to the garden. So Lea just picked up the whole bag and took it to where it needed to be, right!! There was a cordyline to plant that their volunteers couldn’t get out of the pot! Keith and Roger to the rescue. Plant out of the pot and into the ground. And the low pittosporum phedges round the beds that needed pruning: four Goodgymmers cleared that task in no time! Even getting the praise of Hilary, the honorary hedge lady!! Weather perfect + view perfect + Goodgymmers perfect = another task ✅

Six Goodgymmers, Daryl, Janet, Mohammed, Ross, Keith and Lea, equalled the old people in numbers. Where was everyone? Eh one in pyjamas, one on a cruise, etc etc. Not to worry, in spite of braving the horrendous weather, we quickly split up on teams. Lea, being extra nervous as it was her first time as quizmaster, lost half her notes and the answers to the pictures quiz…. But she pulled herself together and then all of us had a great time answering geography questions, questions related to “Sunday” and Pot Luck questions. With team “WET, WET,WET” winning with 34 points, team “TWO” came a close second with 27 points. On our way to next month’s quiz for sure.

Four Goodgymers meet at Bishop Aldhelms school its been to long its nice to go back again.We where tasked with cutting back the gorse which has taken over so we set to with loper's and saws we soon had the gorse cut back its going to make a big difference as the school children can walk round the garden paths without catching on the gorse.We cleared up and said our goodbyes knowing a good job was done.
