A Rose amongst thorns

Monday 11th May

Written by Ian Gostling

Tonight 6 GoodGymer's ran, walked or cycled to Greenfields Community Centre, home of Baby Bank Norfolk.

Our task was to help tidy up the outdoor perimeter that had become overgrown with thorny weeds. We have attended similar tasks at this venue over the years, and tonight was another success!

In just over an hour we had cleared the entire area, by chopping it down and bagging up the green waste, ready to be collected for recycling.

Shout out Jen who attend her first task! Despite the prickly thorns it was a satisfying task.

Thanks to Sarah for the pun, name checking our very own Rose!

Third time clearing, third time lucky

Sunday 10th May

Written by Woody

This was the 3rd trip to Mr D, but it seems to have done the trick, the garden was overgrown with brambles and needed to be taken completely back as it has to be level for Mr D to talk on it. We made good progress with Mr D over the moon and neighbours admiring the garden too, there's more for Mr. D to do but he's happy with where we got too. The biggest spider I've ever seen in the UK was spotted during the work too!

Hayfever relief in the fine city

Sunday 10th May

Written by Woody

This task was helping Ms J with their overgrown garden that they couldn't tend to because of hayfever symptoms. I only had sheers so getting the grass cut was a challenge, but I manager to tidy up the borders and take the height down of all the weeds, I discovered a big frog doing the work, who I hope didn't feel too disturbed by the work, it was hopping around happily as I left.
