Back at Active 360 by Kew Bridge, this time to finish off weeding/clearing the mud off the sides of the walkway and giving the wall a much needed clean.

We had to dodge the kayaks in the beginning but eventually we filled two buckets with dirt and unwanted plants. Johnny, Chris and I discussed the Euros tournament, England's chances against Ukraine and were amused reminiscing about our loss to Iceland in the 2016 tournament. Chris G did not have as much to contribute to the sports chat, which is just as well as he got a lot more done than us during that time.

On to the fun bit - jet wash! The wall needed a serious clean. We each took turns with it and, on Johnny's suggestion, Chris jet-washed the GG logo on the wall - very good work I must say!

By the time we were finished the whole area looked much cleaner and tidier. Even the ducks came up to take a look. Next up is giving the wall a good coat of pain. The council will be inspecting the club in the next few weeks so we are glad to help make it look nice!
