Goodness me, that was a busy one! It was lovely to have so many GoodGymers along this evening, and very much needed!

Our task was to remove a LOT of wood, metal and boxes from the Library of Things storeroom down three flights of stairs, two sets of doors, up in a service lift and across to a skip. We split in to three teams - Dave and Richard were Team Skip, then Val, Judy, Ranjitha and Louisa were the Corridor Runners. The rest of the team were the tasked with getting all of the oddly-shaped and awkwardly weighted items down from the store room.

There was some amazing team work this evening, and nobody fell down any stairs, or into a skip! We did briefly lose Sinéad in a recycling bin, but we won't worry about that!

We welcomed Emmanuel to his first ever GoodGym session this evening, and hopefully the first of many!

Our plans to split into two teams and race to build the two benches were scuppered after we realised we only had one set of fixtures and fittings, but ever the competitive group, we split into pairs to build the seats.

Whilst Dave nipped home to grab a drill, Judy and Sinéad set to work patching up the paintwork on a flower bed and play house. Val, Andy and Louisa set to work giving the plants a well needed drink. Andy wins points for cutest watering can!

Once we had the drill we were back in business, and Emmanuel had another first this evening after Jen taught him how to drill.

Unfortunately time and daylight got the better of us so we weren't able to finish, but the garden is already looking fresher, brighter and more cared for thanks to the GG Dream Team!
