It was a delight to join the Parkinson's Cricket gang for their batting practice. I fielded with a trusty net & helped with the washing up after tea.

Gwyn and Tracey were delighted to return to Mrs A's to see what she had been up to in her garden.
She'd transformed the areas that we had previously helped with, and they are now beautifully covered with decorative stones and matching plants. The next job in line was painting the fence, but we decided to go one step further, and painted dots on Gwyn's trousers and Tracey's sleeve as well!
There were a few spots of rain, but not enough to spoil our work, and we were generously rewarded with some delicious sweeties. Yum - thank you, Mrs A.

Mr C needed a bit of help with trimming and pruning in his garden. He has a damson tree that had produced a fine crop, and there were a lot of branches overgrowing from a neighbour's garden. Gwyn and Tracey set to work and filled two bins and two bags with cuttings, clearing a way towards making the garden more accessible.

Gwyn and Tracey joined their chums at the DCF’s Monday Mates session, getting there early to set up the chairs. We were in a different building to our usual one, so Gwyn gave directions in the car park, while Tracey took the register. Everyone enjoyed tea, biscuits, wordsearches and a quiz, followed by a game of seated cricket, with the GoodGymmers on fielding duty. Once the mates had gone home, we put all the chairs back again.
