Report written by Melanie Young (she/her)
Not exactly tropical but bizarrely warm for February, we headed to our favourite cemetery to help with the Spring Cleaning.
We tackled a stretch of path we'd not weeded before, trying to fond the edges - one side a flower bed and the other a grassy knoll...
We were missing our specialist path finder but gingerly worked our way from the weedy path to uncharted territory, aware that someone had been a bit gungho last time and cleared the turf from a bit that should be grass - he made up for it by helping to move some of the path "weed" turf to the bald patch.
By the bright lights of our butterflies, a good few metres were soon cleared and and the dumpy sack of soil/weeds took three GoodGymmers to be dragged to the paved path.
After running back to workout and a stretch and chat, it was time for Liverpool vs Real Madrid (cue favourite football joke: did you hear the result of the Madrid derby? Real Madrid 2 - Surreal Madrid fish) but the leas said about the second half the better.
We're already looking forward to next time!
