Abby, Ashleigh, Lucy and I did some hill reps to get warmed up for car washing tonight. Beth had 4 of the outreach vehicles ready for us to work our magic on this evening. We have got the car washing down to a fine art now so began with clearing any rubbish, then dusting, hoovering and then finally washing the outside. Everyone has their specialities!
We were also joined by Shan this evening from That’s TV who interviewed us about GoodGym and filmed us completing our task. We are very excited to see it when it’s released. Maybe we’ll need to host a premier screening of our first TV appearance?! We were so busy being stars and cleaning we forgot to get any pictures, but did grab some lovely scenic shots from the run home!

We helped Thomas from Southampton City Farm move a bunch of materials from B&Q out of the parking lot - they'll be soon used to build a chicken coop on the farm grounds. We did this in a totally not competitive way.
We were also by no means influenced by the promise of feeding the animals and running with ponies if we finished early.
Having finished the task in about 30 minutes, we spent the rest of the time playing with the animals and helping the farm put them to sleep. We got to run through the school's fields with Salt & Pepper, the ponies, which were surprisingly quick.

What a relief to have a cooler day for today's task joining the Friends of Southampton Old Cemetery FoSOC on their monthly session. Lucy and I got stuck in with the regular volunteers tackling rampant brambles, clearing around some gravestones. We certainly didn't mind the odd shower although rain did stop play at 11.45 but we managed to fill plenty of large bags. They always offer refreshments at their hub in the old chapel which are most welcome when you are a tad damp.

Some of the team arrived early to do some hill reps ... not sure how many they did, but its a steep hill so hats off to them!
This evenings task was to weed Bed 6 and the adjacent paths and another path which was almost hidden under long grass and comfrey.
Everything which wasn't a crop had to go... except for the Sunflower!!!! Thanks to Abby the Sunflower survived 😊
We were a triumphant team of 10 tonight and completed the task in the hour!
We finished the evening with cake provided by Ellie to remember her Gran, who would have had her 93rd birthday today.
