Report written by Bournemouth runner
Three and a half Goodgymmers, Roger, Daryl, Keith, and Lea with an injured shoulder, hence only one useful arm, went to Bearwood School. Guess what: the area a few Goodgymmers had cleared a few months ago was again full of stuff… two classrooms had flooded over the holidays, cleared out and all the rubbish thrown out. Including two rabbit hutches; no rabbits though! The big skip was waiting to be filled and did we fill it!! Keith and Daryl had a great time attacking huge slabs of wood, using a jemmy and kicking boards loose. Together they were also dismantling a gate when David, the caretaker, said: “oh, I wanted to keep that!” Too late! All in bits and in the skip with it. luckily he was joking… I hope. Roger, as usual, was a great asset, strong as he is. Even the one-armed Goodgymmer, Lea, managed to toss some stuff in the skip. Her other important task was supervising the men, talking to a lonely Santa in the skip, as well as taking all the photographs to show the good work we were doing. David was certainly very, very pleased again with our efficient and hardworking Goodgym team! Thanks everyone for your hard work.
