A very warm evening greeted Bristol GoodGym with Matt making his first appearance - hopefully the first of many!

Runners and walkers set off for Brunswick Cemetery after the usual health and safety chat with the plan to take out as many buttercup seed heads before they could scatter to make more weeds next year. The hot weather has meant they're "ripening" really fast this year.

A breakdown in communication meant the runners had started on pathfinding the lovely spiral that keeps disappearing with some swapping to the buttercup blitz.where we filled black bags and were still only halfway through the park!

It was soon time to head back to Workout for a well-earned drink or two to chat a bit more about life, the universe and everything. More to follow next week!

Return to bunting tidying upping was the done thing this evening. For Clown School lovers, and who isn't?, it's back on in St Werburghs! We made short work of the task, despite a lack of string and the kitchen being the hottest place imaginable to stand in for half an hour of bunting rustling. The biggest news of the day was this coming Monday, is National Richard Day, so Happy Richard Day to all who celebrate a d we look forward to the cakes Richard B said he will bring on Tuesday!

Who doesn't like to clear brambles and bindweed on a balmy spring evening? We absolutely love it, and so does Dushyant who came for his difficult second good deed and even Jordan managed to stay awake to come this week! We made light work of the task and cleared loads and loads and we reckon the weeds have had enough now and won't grow back! The inaugural 'jumping after 3' award, goes to Richard who was the only person to achieve the minimum required height, this young man will go far and I see a gold medal in the next Olympics!

All 8 of us managed to get to St Paul's Learning Centre (eventually) - injuries allowing (pre not during the Group Run/Walk - no injury book entries needed!).

We welcomed Dushyant to their first ever GoodGum and Lucy to their first Bristol GoodGym, we're already used to seeing Russ now he's been back in Bristol for over a week.

The task was improving the look of the outside of the building, mainly weeding, and with a variety of tools, we soon had the front mostly weed-free, but not enough for the perfectionists Freya and Jason who may come back in their own time to finish! It was great to receive feedback from people using the Learning Centre and spread the positivity of GoodGym.

Vaguely Northern Darren had a note from his mum so wasn't able to bend down much, despite people offering bigger and bigger tools so I didn't have to bend down! A note is a note however so he worked hard on 'good vibes' and recording the event for all time with skilled photo-taking.

See you all again next time
