A dozen GoodGymmers, a few chairs to be mended, and some pumpkins that didn't need juggling but were juggled anyway. That's pretty much how this Wednesday's session went.

In between, we had enough time to catch up. Some tried their hand at the coffee machine, some others were brave enough to try the output.

Fixing the chairs is a fiddly task but again the GG spirit won out.

The best part, we saved the community center £1700 in just an hour by mending those chairs. Task owner Jack can sleep easier tonight, though I hope it's not on those chairs!

Jen, Angela and Viv arrived during the final stages of the Town Show, to join Sheila who had been undertaking various tasks during the afternoon.

Now we were #TeamTakeDown making sure vehicles exited the site safely, helping stallholders pack their stalls away, minding stalls whilst stall holders brought their cars closer to load and then made sure stallholders vehicles exited the site safely. The High Street was soon returned to normal appearance and we all went our separate ways home but not before Sheila and Angela collected their award winning competition entries.

Collected litter on walk round oaken Grove Park and bomber estate. Got a large bag

Eight goodgymers made their way to the Riverside family hub to remove weeds and small shrubs from the area. There was lots of tugging, cutting back and scooping of leaves. The time flew by as many hands made light work! A fun evening with lots of chatting and catching up of news. Rachel generously shared her birthday Celebration sweets to celebrate a job well done! Also well done to Jen who completed 115 skips as part of her 100 a day challenge for charity!

7 Goodgymmers were very chip-er at todays task of spreading wood chip in the forest area at St Marys pre school

Tony was a magnificent sight standing atop of a pile of wood chip with his fish and chips in hand- it provided much nourishment for the task at hand

An hour in and you wooden believe the difference we made in the area. The weeds and dirt were covered over with a fresh batch of wood chip, making for a mu(l)ch more usable space for the school

The end of the task loomed and we said goodbye to our task owner Michelle and made our way homes

The weather didn't play ball, so we had to change our plans from painting preserve on the fence to removing ivy from it. There's nothing that fazes GoodGym spirit though. So 11 of us went at the remaining ivy (we've removed a whole lot in the past) with gusto. Some also took out time to rake away the leaves and branches near the fence.

Special shout out to newcomer Paris for her first session with GG. Welcome!
