Haringey Report written by Euclides Montes
Goodgym Haringey got together last night with a very special purpose in mind - to celebrate a departed friend, whose love for life, disposition for a good laugh, and thirst for just a few more Ks was intoxicating and contagious. The thing about death is that it doesn't care about fairness and sometimes it takes from us people who just had too much damn living ahead of them, leaving those of us still around with such a deep sense of loss. Nurj knew this and last time I saw her at the hospital, she made me promise her in that matter-of-factly kind of way of hers that I needed to make sure her Goodgym lot as she called us would be ok afterwards because after all she wouldn't be around to do so. Bloody strong to the end, our Nurj.
So, as a way of keeping a promise, the Goodgym Haringey family decided to bring some new life into this wonderful London borough that she so loved. We planted a baby tree, which will be around for many years to come, and where us Goodgymmers can go and share a quick laugh or the latest juicy goss with Nurj. A Royal Beauty by name, this tree will be all colours and fancy things as seasons change so we know Nurjehan would have approved. And also, as her Goodgym lot got together last night for the customary rummage through a community garden on a lovely warm Wednesday evening at the end of another Summer season, sharing a laugh, some memories, and some tears, I know she would have smiled at her favourite Goodgym in the country and felt proud. We'll never stop missing you on Wednesday evenings, good friend.

Waiting for Nurge's comment on this.

I can see her face beaming at the fuss being made of her. 😢

I'm sure she would have been delighted! "Queen Nurjehan, you know I like that!" - I can hear her saying it

Camden Report written by John Shirley
Today we took on a common GoodGym adventure: moving things from one place to another, and then some of them back again.
The task was to sort out a pile of wood. The rotten, unusable ones were to be taken to a pile to be removed at some stage by Camden council. The re-usable bits were deposited on another pile, and were replaced where they'd started, with protective tarpaulin on top.
And that was it - apart from keeping up to date with the task owner Phil. Back next week!
