Our coldest group run of the year so far and 10 brave goodgymers gathered at Glass Mill ready to do good. It was a last minute change of task due to bulbs not arriving in time at Florence Green.

We made our way up to The Albany and set about choosing between weeding and litter picking! There was a significant amount of both weeding done and litter picked with the area looking much tidier than when we arrived. Or so we hope, it was quite dark!!

The group got smaller and smaller by the time we got to Glass Mill. Time for a quick stretch and then home to warm up!

Another week, another lot of flyers for Age Exchange that needed to be delivered to spread the word about Age Exchange's Christmas Fayre. It's happening on the weekend if anyone wants to pop by!

We all gathered at Glass Mill and made our way up the hill to restart the flyering where we left off last week. At that point I left the group as I needed to rest my ankle so anything could have happened after I split the group into 2 and set them on their way!!

The groups continued where we left off and got most of the flyers delivered. The rest Paul very kindly delivered this week.

Hopefully they have a great turnout! Next week we are off to Florence Green to plant bulbs.

In tonight's task: Goodgym Greenwich foil the Rhubarb plot at Prince Phillip Maritime Collection Centre...

An unseasonably mild 5th November saw 8 GoodGymers make their way to Prince Phillip Maritime Collection Centre in Kidbrooke, where our tasks often involve gilded ceilings, or work in the thriving community garden.

A veritable rainbow of fireworks guided us on our run, and once at the task we sparked into life in the community garden area, cutting back some amazing smelling but slightly overgrown rosemary, weeding the woodchip paths, and clearing wilted tomato plants. A sad part of the task involved removing a giant sunflower (a definite sign that Winter is Coming...) but a cut back of the huge Rhubarb plant provided a great harvest we'll be stalking about for weeks.

The run home loomed, and we managed not to crumble, however being accompanied by the flash, bangs and whizzes of fireworks, poor Rhubarb was unable to utter the immortal lines of "It's all gone quiet..."

On Sunday we've got Clean up Charlton and next wednesday we're leafleting for Age Exchange.

Thank you all & catch up soon!
