A handful of intrepid Good Gymmers – Tabitha, Pete, Lizzie, Lee and Josh (aka the Famous Five) – met at GG Willesden’s spiritual home of Beer + Burger for a catch-up, a warm-up, and a run up to the Kingsgate Estate to help Ajay clear the Kilburn Grange Park “Community Triangle” area of its weeds and thistles. We weeded, thistled, raked, hoed, pulled and dug, removing FIVE WHOLE TONNES (well... five tonne-bags full anyway) of hefty overgrowth. Special mention to Pete befriending the interested local passers-by and Lizzie's virtuoso performance with the giant leaf grabber tongs!

As we finished and posed for the "we've done it!" pic, Ajay explained how the newly-cleared area would be replanted in order to encourage local residents to grow their own veg at home - a perfectly cromulent and inspiring community initiative indeed. We'll be helping out with his other local projects very soon.

Our task complete, we "ran" back to B+B for Tabitha's warm-down and some well-earned pints, chips and chat - Josh's Hoegaarden-esque wheat beer rounded off an excellent Monday night.

Cheers!
