Janet and Daryl meet at Mrs Ds she asked for her front garden to be cleared of weeds and thorns.We set to work and had the weeds pulled out and as for the thorns they were all over the garden I'm sure there was one too Many. We soon had the garden looking good again.Mrs D was really pleased with what we had achieved she was so pleased to have the front cleared

Millie, Sophie, Emma, Harry, Eleanor, Daryl, Roger, Keith and Lea all got together at Langside School where Nick had more tasks for us to do. Cham, new to Goodgym and to all of us, managed to find us and was raring to go. Sylvie arrived “a tad” 🤪 later…. To summarise today’s task: we were cutting, grabbing and tossing! Cutting A LOT, sweeping A LOT, grabbing A LOT, and the best part of it: tossing A LOT!!! The taller than tall hedge at the front of the school was attacked by the strimmer together with Harry and Daryl, with Cham sweeping to his heart’s content. Millie, Sophie and Emma got busy cutting back the rosemary bush and the garlic…making the air fill with lovely smells. At the back Keith started off cutting back major bushes on the edge of the playground. He was joined by the front squad and later on by Sylvie. Oh and not to forget about Roger: our ACE jetwasher, attacking the dirt on another classroom. As photos show: we got an awful lot done; very much appreciated by Nick who rewarded us with some sweet smelling bathbombs. What a Lush smell 🤗 And… Eleanor was proudly showing off her 50 good deeds tshirt! 😃 Thanks everyone for all your hard 💪 work!

Three Goodgymmers, Daryl, Keith and Lea, went to help Emma, a Goodgymmer in the past, who is now a social worker. She had asked us to clear a totally overgrown front garden and use the cut stuff to stop kids getting into the back garden of the house and scaring the person living in the house. Daryl was busy already cutting, when Keith and Lea arrived. Keith got his saw and heavy duty loppers out to get stuck in there. Emma dragged and cut and Lea was totally in her element dragging stuff and weaving all the cuttings into a hedge. To say the hedge resembles the Great Wall of China might be a tiny bit of an exaggeration, but there is no way those blinking kids can get through there now!!! All in all an amazingly good job done and a very happy Emma. She “warned” us: there will be more!! Well, we are not complaining. Thanks Goodgymmers for your hard work.
