To rain or not to rain - that is the question!
With an accuweather forecast that wasn't accurate we got the best of the weather on offer this evening with hardly any rain until we were just finishing.
It was nice to meet Kirsty, new to Guildcare, who showed to the area that the gardener at Haviland had requested we work on.
The bed was just outside some of the residents rooms and one that definitely needed some TLC with rubbish and weeds strewn all over it. The team wasted no time in getting on the gloves, grabbing a tool and getting down on their knees and digging in.
It was lovely to see Craig and Sarah back this evening bringing their usual level of both physical and mental energy! I will leave you to decide who brought which element!
Paul, Gillybean,Belinda and John cracked on enjoying some pruning, weeding and the usual banter as we worked.
1 hour later and we were mission accomplished!
Apologies for the delay in sending this report out - our 1st baby grandchild made a slightly early appearance and put my head into a whirl as well as some sleep deprivation thrown in too! IT's A BOY !!!
Next week we will be at St Botolph's Church garden and then to the Brew House to celebrate Sarah 50th good deed !
Hope to see lots of you there !
Have a great week
Julia xx

I love the concept of getting physically and mentally fit whilst combining it with helping others. I run most days.
