The weather was on the side of goodgym Cardiff tonight, still sunny with a nice light breeze. It was all a bit special too, the exact date that we started 6 years ago - it's our anniversary / birthday - whatever you want to call it, it's SPECIAL

To mark the occasion, we had a new start location with a great Welsh name - Daffodil.

Learning Time

The Romans are known to have planted narcissus in memory of loved ones or comrades fallen in battle. It’s likely they brought daffodils to Britain from the Iberian Peninsula, predominantly Spain and Portugal, where the largest variety of daffodil species are found.

Not just a simple task tonight, but instead we were splitting into two groups to help two separate places at the same time.

Back to help clear at St. Dyfrig & St. Samson Church, weeding like machines were Michael, Karolina, Natasha, Dylan and Dylan. Karolina rode on her bike as Michael ran - like something out of Rocky.

Task number two was helping at Lansdowne Primary School, a slightly longer run led by Darren. Fiona and Marie cleared bushes and weeds and tidied up the garden area. Some of the trees were blocking the entrance. Darren and Emily painted the walls around the mud kitchen.

Andrew, Imy and Adam painted a playhouse in the playground. Llion and Martin moved storage units around and painted.

Once we were all finished, it was time to head back to continue the celebrations into the evening and look back fondly on the six years,

7133 good deeds by 504 runners, walkers & cyclists,

237 missions to help older people,

690 visits to an older person.

It may be hard sometimes to juggle work and life, but this makes it all worthwhile in my eyes - each and every one of you that has taken part are so VERY SPECIAL and deserve all the praise.
