We started tonights session by welcoming two newbies, Nicola andAdam ! ๐ŸŽ‰ Thanks for joining us โ€” we hope you enjoyed your first taste of GoodGym, We also adorned Jane with the cape of good deeds for completing her 100th task tonight.

We then named and numbered off by making a pledge in honour of make a difference day. These varied from spending time with family to Max pledging world peace! Nick also promised his wife to improve on something that niggled her - we need to find out more!

We then headed to St Nicks with Nick leading out and Laura at the back, along with Vicky's cycling group, to tackle some unruly brambles and clear the path. Armed with determination our team got stuck in, cutting back the prickly invaders and digging out one or two. and made a good start.

We then took our photo with our #liftthecurfew banner.

With the brambles beaten back, it was then time to swap gardening gloves for game faces as James and Jane led a fun fitness session of Play Your Cards Right. ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ’ช

It was then back to base to sample some of Lyndsay's beetroot brownies and for some, wash it down with a pint!
