Daryl and Eleanor met and left running around 4 miles in opposite directions, in between clearing up Bournemouth Gardens with their mighty litter pickers! One whole bag full was gathered (the area was reasonably tidy for once!), with the usual cans and food packets, all the like, but a star littered-tin-can shining just off the path by the shrubs would come to prove Daryl's immense dedication and determination to improve our lovely green spaces here in Bournemouth... as he well and truly got stuck in the boggy mud collecting said can, losing both his shoes and turning his white sport socks brown as he hopped to safety! (All Eleanor could do was laugh, but of course, save the trainers).

Two runners meet at the Brewhouse on what must be the best day of the year so far. We had sun all day.We had a nice gentle run to Durley Chine where we started the litter pick we went down one side to the beach took some photos as it was a nice evening and decided to go back up the other which turned out to be the right move as the other side was bad there had been a land slide and works was going on but they just left the rubbish so we picked up the bottles and cans .Afterwards we went up on the West Cliff where behind a tree we found a rather wet but a complete out fit including socks!!! We managed to fill two rubbish sacks so we had done a good job in the time. We headed back and said our good byes until the next time.

One Goodgymer meet up with Karen from the Parks Foundation who look after a lot of the green parks in Bournemouth.We walked round the park to see where the Four trees would be planted once sorted and shown how they were to be set in I set to and soon had the first one in within no time we had all four in and the rain did not bother us.I must say it was a good afternoon and very educational. All four trees were safely planted.

Two Goodgymers meet at MrGs we also meet two nurses how told us what had to be done .First job was to move the bed out as there was a new one on its way.We then moved the TV and book case so the new bed could go straight in . We hoovered the carpet job done so Mr G would be happy with his room. We where told not to take any pictures so we have just a picture of Joanna and Daryl.

Six Goodgymmers, Daryl, Janet, Mohammed, Ross, Keith and Lea, equalled the old people in numbers. Where was everyone? Eh one in pyjamas, one on a cruise, etc etc. Not to worry, in spite of braving the horrendous weather, we quickly split up on teams. Lea, being extra nervous as it was her first time as quizmaster, lost half her notes and the answers to the pictures quiz…. But she pulled herself together and then all of us had a great time answering geography questions, questions related to “Sunday” and Pot Luck questions. With team “WET, WET,WET” winning with 34 points, team “TWO” came a close second with 27 points. On our way to next month’s quiz for sure.
