The Best Laid Plants Often Go Awry
8 GoodGymers made their way 3km to help the Wood Green Library Garden Project in Haringey.

8 Goodgymmers congregated tonight under the Wolf Moon for a frankly surreal session, tending to the Library Gardens in Wood Green.
Don't Leaf Me This Way (Without Tending To My Moss)
After a last minute task cancellation, we visited the Library Gardens last night as both Goodgymmers and locals seemed to fall under the lycanthropic influence of the Wolf Moon.
Gramps's knee is still as useful as a chocolate teapot at the moment so Sarah Moore, 40, stepped in to save the day and lead the run to task. Hero.
Once on site, we got on with the business at hand - which included doing a litter pick and planting over 300 crocuses, while navigating a rowdy crowd of locals.
Our Goodgymmers didn't hesitate to crack on with their task with aplomb and a bit of mossy banter (you really had to be there!) and we called it quits once the werewolves were fully at the door, chucking plants around.
Surreal night.
Join us next week for a slightly earlier start as we visit the good folk at Traid.

Thanks for pointing this out and not leaving it to look like I'm terribly ageist! :)
The Wolf was definitely out tonight. Surreal.
