Share the love

If someone asked you "what would be the ideal task to do in the dark?" I bet your response wouldn't be "paint a wall black"...

... well us dogooders at GoodGym love a challenge so thats exactly what we did!

When we started this task a few weeks ago, it was 1 degrees and raining... not pleasant would be putting it mildly.

This time, we spent a lot more time painting rather than huddling around a little campfire (I think we all admitted to doing this last time!) and we made amazing progress.

We'll be visiting again on Monday evening to finish the job as Bingo has been delayed for a month.


This task supported
Sanctuary garden lavender planting
Weeding a flower bed and planting 20 lavcendar plants

At the Sanctuary we have a community cafe which is open midweek and occasionally at weekends for events. The garden is well used by local people and it needs a bit of TLC. I have bought some lavender to spruce up the flower bed, and it is also in need of some weeding.
