This morning in the sunshine we set to work carrying on digging up the weeds and tufts of grass around the beds,all whilist having a chat.

A great evening spent with potential volunteers and charities. Hopefully will have some new sign ups so we can do even more in the community. I even met the Mayor as he made his way round the event.

GoodGym turned up in force to Elm Road Park having run, walked and cycled their way there.

Upon arrival we were provided with safety glasses, masks, scrapers, chisels and sandpaper and were spread out along a concrete fence.

The task was to remove any last pieces of a mosaic, scrape off the loose paint and sand back the surface so that it was ready for painting. The paint was stubborn in some areas and we were moved around as each section progressed until each panel was quite smooth.

We will return next week when the rain will have hopefully stopped to finish any more preparation work and do some painting so everything is ready for a new mural.

This afternoon I met up with members of Friends of Kingston Road Recreation Ground to do a litter pick around the area and children playground, also we cutted down bramble and pulled up weeds. This made a different to the appearance of this well used public space.

This mornings reason to get up, cheering on the kids as they go around this recreation ground.

This afternoon Anna and myself met to move a bed and dining room table back to their rightful place.
