Nick continued his big birthday (yesterday) celebrations by joining me in Acomb for a GoodGym mission. He is the newest member of the Friday Fun Club and I finally persuaded him that he had nothing better to do so he agreed to join me!

We met Rachael and Ian (who was dropping her off) from York City Council and gathered various tools. We set to work removing moss and weeds (but mostly moss) from the block paving at the front of the houses where a couple of the residents thanked us. Nick and Rachael carried on around the side of the buildings and around the corner.

After an hour Ian returned and helped us sweep up the last bits. We left the area looking much improved.
