Five Goodgymmers, Eleanor, Roger, Daryl, Keith and Lea, had another go at attacking the Spanish Bluebells, by fair means or foul... digging them out with bulbs and all or deadheading them. We again filled a number of wheelbarrows and the garden is looking very blueless now, much to David's delight. He will get their regular volunteers to plant new stuff. Thanks for your hard work everyone.

three Goodgymmers, Roger, Lea and Keith, turned up at St Aldhelm's church to attack the Spanish invasion.... of bluebells! Digging deep to get to the bulbs was no easy feat. Yikes, our arms today! David, the gardener was very happy with our work and hopes to see us back for more attacking of the Spanish bluebells, beautiful though they are, they are incredibly invasive!

Janet, Keith and Lea joined David in the Jubilee Garden of St Aldhelm’s Church. The task at hand: ivy pulling… a notoriously back breaking task. And today was definitely no exception, judging by some of the moans and groans that were emitting from some of us Goodgymmers🤔😃. As to interesting finds in the garden: enough cans and bottles to have a garden party, unfortunately they were rather empty. 🥴The Ray Ban lookalike sunglasses were unfortunately rather useless as well… no arms🤪! But Goodgymmers certainly aren’t useless: David was very grateful for the hard work we put in tonight! And the little robin, can you spot him?, that came and inspected our work seemed happy with our work as well….
