9 chilly Goodgymmers descended upon the soggy lands of Tottenham Green for a spot of bulb-planting.

Kudos Corner

Everybody make some noise for the wonderful Olivia from GGGreenwich who stopped by to see us as she attempts to visit all GGs in London - all the while very cooly prepping and fundraising to run the London Marathon this Spring. Show her some love with some £££s. Rock star!

Also, Louise, we love you! Come again :)

Hole-y Moly

Our heroic Goodgymmers battled the elements tonight as they joined the Friends of Tottenham Green to help them make a down payment on a field-full of tulips and daffodils in Spring in the form of a wet wet wet bulb-planting session. 

Like the sensible rodents of fables of old, our goodgymmers busily squirreled away a few hundred bulbs on the Bernie Grants Centre side of the Green. Like the less sensible characters of fables of old, some of our Goodgymmers engaged in some rather salacious badinage. Much of it it's probably better if it goes unprinted, or at least we can give GGGreenwich's Olivia the last word as she politely put it: "It’s great meeting the Haringey Goodgym team tonight. What a lively group" - the word lively has never had to do so much work in all its existence as it has here.

All in all, a lovely evening and a rather successful task. Boom!

So great to meet the team last night. The weather has been kind to us as it stopped raining when we’re planting the bulbs. The energy of the group was amazing. I shall definitely come back again. Thank you for making me so welcomed. Great run report, Euclides and thanks for mentioning my marathon’s fundraising web page! I hope you will sort out your glasses soon.
