Massifs de jardin sans frontiers - (Garden beds without borders).

We all gathered at St James’ garden and got briefed that we would need to remove some overgrown thorns and bits from the back of the garden.

We also were tasked with resetting the border lines of the garden beds, removing grass that had grown into the flower beds around the site.

A good time was had by all and we decamped to Cavendish Court for refreshments afterwards.

Another visit to Mrs J, which has become quite regular.

On this occasion, there were some hedges in the back garden that needed trimming back, which are having a September growth spurt.

This was taken care of, as well as some weeds that had started to poke through around areas of the garden. Mrs J was very happy with the work but there's some more work needed to be done at the bottom of the garden in the near future.

Tonight 9 GoodGymer's returned to Frere Road Community Centre to continue giving the exterior walls a fresh coat of paint.

Focusing on the front of the building we were given a new colour 'Cornish Cream' to brighten things up! Which led to the discussion - what do you spread on your scone first, cream or jam??

The dust sheets were laid out, and everyone spread out armed with rollers, brushes & step ladders for the hardest to reach areas. Woody also finished off the remaining white wall that we couldn't complete on our last visit.

Once we were finished it was time for a quick social and some birthday celebrations at the pub!

Thanks again to Claire for organising and cleaning all the tools for the task.

This was a challenge! The sofa had to go through some narrow doorways and it was a fun although heavy puzzle to get the sofa out of the door.

Eventually we succeed and it’s ready to be collected, with a happy Mrs Y.
