Under the light of the clocktower, 7 GoodGymers got to work clearing leaves from a path. Three wheelbarrows on the go lugging leaves back to a bag. Plenty of raking, steering and stomping. The path is fully clear again for accessible users (for now).

Back to a favourite. Walking away with food never gets old. Was great to see a lot of the regulars again.
Half an hour of packing away crates and sweeping to be rewarded with some delights including soardough loaves and purple cabbage. Ran there with Steph but gained a bag of food so just a slow walk home.

Three GoodGymers braved the dark to sweep leaves, powered by two head torches. We got it done in about half the time. It was great to see how the space has come along since last time.

We had a good time weeding and sweeping at Rose Bowl. Dawn was really appreciative of our work and we loved hanging out with her cute dog Teddy.
We rounded off with collapsing some cardboard boxes. A bonus bit of skateboard action at the end. Already lined up to return in a month. The floodlights were much appreciated.

On a warm and sunny Sunday morning, which felt just as if it was still summer (in October!), six GoodGymers from all across London descended on Parliament Hill School to lend Claudia, Nick and Adam hand in the amazing garden transformation.
Matt and Richard used their DIY skills to build a new compost bin, making use of discarded pallets. Michelle and Cherian took hose pipes to water recently planted hedges. Sevan, after an episode of cutting back a monster cluster of brambles, got back into his speciality - scything. Kash got acquainted with a slasher and lost herself in a very satisfying bramble bash.
What a rewarding morning, full of claiming bramble-ridden ground and building new things, it was!
