Many paws really did make light work! When Maria, Harvey, Sevan, Steph Ducat, Kash and Iram arrived at the end of the fair, most stallholders had already made great progress packing away their wares. We helped some people take items outside to load up their cars but mostly we packed away tables, stacked chairs and moved other items back to their rightful homes.

Always on the lookout for the next useful task, we even experimented with creative chair-transport techniques: a trolley stacks with five GoodGymers. The most ambitious move of the afternoon was transporting a piano. Thankfully the team managed it without any bumps or breakages, and it was still playing beautifully afterwards.

With the hall cleared and everything back in place, we were rewarded for iour efforts with some leftover food and a cheerful bunch of daffodils to take home.

Back to Mrs I for another decluttering session of the conservatory. As I have been told to keep my shoes on, I put disposable shoe covers so I dont put any dirt or mud in the house. Finding more interesting items such as old photos, holy candles, holy water bottles, batteries and loads of bags...bags of glory? A lot of space made in the conservatory : absolutely bag-nificent. We had the upper hand on the bags this week. Will be back for more discoveries in the conservatory.

For the third year in a row, the first Saturday of March had our GoodGym Ealing band on tour, with gigs jotted around Hanwell, Perivale, Greenford, and again Hanwell.

The performance in Perivale's countryside-style venue was all about rock & roll: rolling the rocks in wheelbarrows. Devi, Victoria, Maxime, Sevan, Steph Ducat and Kash entered the stage at Horsenden Farm, cheered by Elsa and other familiar faces. They were ready to make some noise - and, boy, they did!

The band started on a clean slate, with a new task: moving the slate debris obstructing the car park to a space behind a container, planned to be transformed from an eroding bank into a reinforced and levelled seating area. The tempo and loudness of wheelbarrow loading were so intense that the audience insisted on an encore after the GoodGym band finished.

The amped up six then moved onto another stage: a space with raised beds that also had to be cleared of debris and levelled. GoodGymmers rocked that task, leaving behind a smooth, rockless area, with an outdoor sink firmly planted on top.

If you missed the beat in March, join us in April for another unforgettable jam (and pizza)!
