On Sunday two GoodGymmers donned our 'thorn-proof' gloves and headed to Kentish Town to clear some brambles from Mr and Mrs M's garden. Brambles have to be one of the most annoying bits of vegetation, not only do their spikes make them hard to hold, they are also really hard to wrangle into a bag. We did a pretty good job though and by the end the garden was looking much better. As we worked we chatted about Kike's new flat, Beth's trip to the Paralympics, coach running and all the lovely races that we have coming up next year, a particular favourite for both of us being a trip to Latvia in May.
