A really sunny September morning at Mrs J's garden.

There were some more things to address in the corner of the back garden, a nice but uneven space that Mrs J cannot access, there's a lot of Ivy overgrown on the ground, which has choked out the rest of the garden space, so I spend a large part of the time clearing that up. Finally trimming back the lavender so the dead heads were gone for the winter.

Towards the end of the task I had a nice visit from a Robin, who was hanging out until the end of the task.

At GoodGym we are celebrating This Girl Can's Move10 campaign - keeping things simple. 10 minutes of movement, 10 times over a month, in whatever way works for you.

"We are the movers and shakers of the world for ever."

It was our last Monday at Mousehold of the year, just before it gets too dark - but don't worry we're heading back for a few Saturday sessions if you missed out!

Always a favourite task - with 19 GoodGymers attending, Will lead us all to the area needing work. Pulling braken to allow other plant species to grow, and carrying piles across the heath.

We spread out into 3 areas, it was a very social evening and rewarding to see how much of difference it made!

Shout outs to Gemma, Rachel and Lizzie all completing their first Good Deed!

Will kindly treated us to some tasty snacks, which was a lovely way to finish the evening as the night drew in.

Dig out those headtorches for next week folks!

With a new junior parkrun opening today at Pilling Park Norwich we new we would be down on numbers, but 2 regular attendees came and away they went with the tailwalker having to run the 2k as well. It was my official 500th Parkrun Volunteer credit today although bext werkend i will be celebrating with CAKE

339 people, including 5 very first timers & 8 tourists found their way around Catton Park today. The weather was perfect, cool but windy so no sweaty today!

We ran, cycled and walked 4km because tonight was Quiz Night at Edmund Bacon Court. Now a well established session, bringing 15 local residents & 9 GoodGymer's together for a social evening of head scratching and biscuits!

We split into 4 teams for a test of General Knowledge, 90s Trivia, Musicals & Famous Faces... with a stop for tea & biscuits halfway through.

Once the results were in, this weeks winners were 'Cheesy Chips!' Well done everyone. Shout out to Mary for attending her first GoodGym Session.

The mission was to clear enough of the overgrown bushes to be able to use the backdoor and to gain access from the back door to the wall for new washing machine plumbing.

After plenty of cutting and clearing, a walkway was carved through the garden and the wall was uncovered. A small seating area was also uncovered.

The space is ready for the new machine - a successful mission.
