Quite an evening for our task, unfortunately everything changed at the last minute. We had to cancel our Orchard watering due to the event in Blackweir, for the first time.

It was a busy evening in Cardiff tonight, as we had Katy Perry in the castle and Lewis Capaldi in Blackweir Fields (just up the path)

Even with all of this activity, and last minute changes, we still met up and got out for some good. Our change had us running up to The Salvation Army Hostel for young people, with an option to work inside or out.... The weather was looking changeable...

Once we were all there, Michael took the crew inside to help carry out the items to build.

Our tasks, to build.....

• 3 Planters
• 1 Round garden picnic bench
• 5 large boxes to carry in total.

Let's go go go

We were split into 4 teams of two, 6 on the raised planters. The final 2 were to do as much as possible with the bench, but this wasn't going to be finished in one 30 minute session.

He weather stayed dry, so we stayed outside enjoying the evening air.

5.....4....3...2..1

Time's up, let's get the photo and head back. It was a great jog back, as thousands were descending on Cardiff for the night. We had cheers from the crowds as if we were part of a race.

Some of our weirder discussions on the way back, as acid reflux came up. The fact that there are 60 Sphincter muscles in the human body, and they control a lot more than you think.....

Thanks to everyone of you for coming out, see you again soon.

A new week and new weather, so we found a task to make the most of the rain.

5 goodgymers took on the hill to help out at Northlands, young person homeless hostel.

The staff have been stripping some of the land surrounding the hostel, taking it back to soil. As always though, a few plants pop up where you don't want them, and so the call to goodgym.

Michael, always happy to help, led the team to remove those unwanted plants and rake over the soil.

Lew, Jonathan and Emily went straight to the Loppers to take on the plants.

And suddenly we had Flo joining us, as the first part of cutting was completed, it was time for the rakes.

The team did a great job of sharing the jobs, from cutting to raking and clearing the greens into the waste bag.

Michael and Emily had already worked those guns, carrying a half full waste bag up from the bin shed.

Now as the evening continued, that bag was topped to full. So Lew dragged it out of the way.

A slight break in the task as we all debated the yellow capped pipe.... And what it could possibly be.

A bomb? Gas? Part of a yellow submarine???

If you want to know, you'll have to join us at a task sometime....

As we got to the end, all hot and sweaty from a good workout, light rain started and the seeds were shared out....

It was a mix of UK-native wildflower seeds, everything you need and more to form a perfect patch of wildflowers to attract birds, bees, butterflies and insects.

The mix supports bees and butterflies, as well as other insects attractive to wild birds through the summer. The addition of a variety of grain-bearing plants such as linseed, sunflower and quinoa provide an important food source for wild birds through the winter.

Once everything had been spread, it was time to get our group photo and head back to the City Centre.

We will keep an eye on the patch and update on the growing show.....
