Lucy and I arrived to the village of Stockton on Forest to help Mrs M. Her front garden was overgrown and was encroaching on to the footpath which was becoming a trip hazard.

There were two halves to the garden that needed sorting; obviously in GoodGym spirit we were going to do one half each and race each other...however we quickly realised that there may be too much for the both of us so reluctantly agreed to help each other instead.

We quickly cleared the main footpath and the grass but were temporarily defeated by some of the more stubborn plants. Whilst we were able to clear some stubborn blighters (and obviously posed like we beheaded a foe!), there will need to be a return visit to finish up.
