Share the love

On a scorcher of a Saturday two goodgym members met up to help out at Rumney Partnership Hub / Hyb Partneriaeth Tredelerch. We have been running to help in the community gardens here for a few years now (albeit sporadically) but like most things in the various lockdowns, it in need of some love and attention. Aren't we all!

Our mission today was to clear the three raised beds of the overgrown and unwanted plants.

Can our two intrepid goodgymers get it done?

You bedder believe it!

It has been a long time since Charlotte and Michael has seen each other, so there was plenty to catch up on and chat about. A selection of the topics from today - Who should have won the Eurovision (yes it's still being talked about), our favourite karaoke songs, being vegan, quick dinners / snacks for when you can't be bothered to spend all that time cooking and of course the return of group runs.

Gloves on - Game on

At first the large 'weeds' were removed by hand, and this turned out to be hard work and some great exercise. With the music keeping us going from Michael's phone we turned to tools for the next part which was getting out the roots. Tooled up we continued with the hard forking work, as soil was thrown around trying to get the task complete in time.

Finally it was time to head off, who knew Charlotte and Michael would end up in bed together?
