A cloudy day for a task, but not too rainy and quite nice to work in.

I visited Mrs J and was asked if I could help shape some hedges, back to a dome shape which was quite pleasing to look at, alongside some other tasks beginning to clear some Ivy that has taken over Mrs J's back garden. Finally a bit of tidying up.

It was a fun task to do, but there's a lot more Ivy to tackle yet!

Four Goodgymer’s turned out to support Friends of Anderson’s Meadow to plant 10 fruit and nut trees. This included almond trees, apricot and a walnut. Watered in with water from the river else look forward to seeing them thrive amongst the daffodils.

A decidedly sunny day, but with some seriously cold gusts, the GG team descended on Valpy Avenue Allotments to tackle some serious brambles. Armed with loppers and rakes the brambles did not stand a chance and we made some serious progress, making a previously overgrown plot habitable again for a lucky allotmenteer.

Afterwards refreshments were served which were very welcome to the team, some admiring a pond that was thriving with tadpoles. Hopefully another visit will occur in the future and more plots can be made ready for use.

On a lovely day I arrived and met Mrs I right away as they were waiting for me. The table was small but fitted together well and made for a sturdy option that could be moved around Mrs I's house when complete. Mrs I was very happy with the table.

Tonight 11 GoodGymer's ran 6km to support EACH charity store on Alysham Road.

On our first visit to this store, we were asked to help clear all Winter sale items from the shelves to make way for new Spring stock - but with a twist.

We each collected 10 sale items in matching sizes and placed them into bags so that they could be sold as £5 'mystery bags' in store. This created lots of fun, finding the correct sizes and choosing a variety of clothing.

After an hour 35 bags had been filled!

It was also Ian's 200th Good Deed this evening, so a few of us celebrated with Pizza at the end of the night!

Paths tidied, weeds removed, and hedges trimmed ready for new growth. Spring in full swing with bees and bugs galore enjoying the space.
