A second mission here in two weeks, continuing to clear the garden of built up brambles. This week the back of the fence was tackled and cleared well, thanks largely to 'The Beast' a hedge trimmer which eats brambles for lunch. The garden is really starting to clear up now.

We went to Mr. S's to grab some shopping. When we arrived Mr. S did only want the trip to the pharmacy completed, so we hot footed it to the pharmacy and picked up his prescription. We then returned and learned there was another item he wanted from the pharmacy that was also prescribed, that wasn't given to us, so we went back once again and collected that too.

Mr. S was very happy when we returned and we left feeling like a good deed was achieved well. For Bobby, it was back to the bat-cave, but the Good Gym logo was shining in the sky for Woody, who went to the next mission.

Tonight 8 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 5km to Greenfield Community Centre - home of Baby Bank Norfolk.

We returned to finish painting the Tansy room, that we had started at the beginning of the year. So picked up where we left off with paint rollers, applying a second coat of Frosted Steel which was very satisfying.

It was a fun task to see how many GoodGymer's could fit in a small space with a paint brush!

This room, along with the rest of the venue, was originally painted a mustard yellow so it is now getting a new brighter feel. After an hour the room was complete, so we cleaned up and headed home en mass.

We will be returning to this venue again in a few months time for more painting & gardening tasks.

New Brooms please

A great morning task revisiting Mousehold Heath to cut down some broom off the slopes near the Britannia Road car park.

It’s important for some areas of the heath to have clear grassland for wildlife and to maintain the stunning views of the city the area offers.

12 GoodGymer's got through a lot of broom and deposited the cuttings further down the hill which will provide a habitat for other wildlife too.

A big welcome to Aardra and Deepak on their first GoodGym task and congratulations to Danni for reaching their 10th task!

Today was a great task, we visited Mr. M. Who we have visited before to continue working on clearing their garden, it had been a long break and Mr. M. had procured a ball of energy (Dog) since our last visit.

Missy was lot of fun and a wizard at standing on two legs.

Anyway... we also cleared a lot of brambles and moved a lot of applicances into a pile for collection in an an accessible point in the garden, when we started they were buried under the brambles.
