Spreading GoodGym loveliness somewhere in the city

Bristol Report written by VaguelyNorthernDarren
All 8 of us managed to get to St Paul's Learning Centre (eventually) - injuries allowing (pre not during the Group Run/Walk - no injury book entries needed!).
We welcomed Dushyant to their first ever GoodGum and Lucy to their first Bristol GoodGym, we're already used to seeing Russ now he's been back in Bristol for over a week.
The task was improving the look of the outside of the building, mainly weeding, and with a variety of tools, we soon had the front mostly weed-free, but not enough for the perfectionists Freya and Jason who may come back in their own time to finish! It was great to receive feedback from people using the Learning Centre and spread the positivity of GoodGym.
Vaguely Northern Darren had a note from his mum so wasn't able to bend down much, despite people offering bigger and bigger tools so I didn't have to bend down! A note is a note however so he worked hard on 'good vibes' and recording the event for all time with skilled photo-taking.
See you all again next time

Take That Emmaus reorganisation!
A huge number of Bristol GoodGymmers took to the task of moving the big furniture to the ground floor of the shop which was already dull of the bric-a-brac that was going upstairs in the shop which was already full of the furniture going to the downstairs of the shop - a full-on Tetris challenge to create some space to start the manoeuvres.
The smaller items started being carried upstairs whilst the lift was used for the bigger items, although the lift seemed slower than lugging things up or down the stairs so it wasn't long before some much chunkier furniture was being carefully manhandled around the bannisters.
Fortunately, there was also a lot of chat to catch up on with GoodGymmers who'd not seen each other for a while making good use of the "lift waiting" time, springing into action like coiled springs when the ding of the lift warned that the door was soon to open with mystery objects and GoodGymmers inside.
The temperature increased with each lift-load being carefully tessellated into gaps to keep some floor space clear and our 50-minutes was soon up with a lot already moved (and a task for the Emmaus team tomorrow to find a lay-out that works for them).
We made sure two of the sofas were accessible for our end-of-task photo before heading off with many joining GoodGym Eats at Crispy Dosa, moving even more furniture around to have a big enough table for our lovely group.
From shifting sofas to Crispy Dosas - the crispiest dosas on Earth!

Bristol Report written by Melanie Young (she/her)
Much weeding and watering awaited GoodGym Bristol in Brunswick Cemetery on a very warm evening so everyone was in the walking group.
Sycamores, bindweed and a creeping (not creepy) weed i-should -learn-the-name-of were hoiked out left, right and centre from the beds, paths and anywhere else they were spotted.
The plants that has been, um, planted the day before were also given a healthy dowsing sue to the very warm (hot?) weather so hopefully they can start covering the trellis in lovely greenness.
The time flee by and we were soon saying goodbye to Di and Jo, although only until Monday which is another bank holiday so time for another visit and bank holiday coffee/lunch to keep on chatting.
