Today we went to help Ian at the rugby club by weeding and re-seeding one of the pitches. Daryl and Steve were on seed duty, whilst everyone else was weeding. Ian set us the challenge of filling up a tonne bag full of weeds, which was accomplished just in time! After a scramble to put away the tonne bag, a group photo, and quickly scoff down a mini chocolate bar, we ran back to Old Spike. A few of us headed to the pub afterwards.

Goodgym Southwark headed over to Kelly Avenue Park. When we arrived we filling the trenches that had been dug the previous month, with the mulch and soil, which that had been delivered by the council, to form the hugelkulture.

As we moved the mulch and soil quicker than expected, using a repurposed bin and the might of Goodgymers carrying the big bags, we then proceeded to water the planted hedgerow, weed around the smaller trees and litter pick across the park.

Jam packed evening for goodgym Southwark - a sweaty 3km run from Old Spike to Old Alleynian in time to catch the solar eclipse.

Some novel methods to watch it were attempted including a holy hat and a pasta spoon.. Thank you to David for packing spare glasses so everyone could get a glimpse!

After the EXCITEMENT of the eclipse we helped Ian with trimming the pavement side hedge.

Then onwards for some well deserved ice creams at Oddono's and crispy cold pints at the Actress.
