On my 150th good deed, we met at Heart and Helen took the group on a 4.5K run through Beckett Park on the way to Shire Oaks primary school. We were there to finish off the painting for the sensory garden that we started in September. Jason arrived early to take apart an old bench (thank you) & then spent most of the session up a ladder! We managed to get the second coat of paint on the walls in good time and it looks loads better! Janie gave us flapjack & tea...we're not used to this kind of service. Thank you!

We ran to and from HEART to Meanwood Valley Farm making the most of the twilight before our Wednesday evening GoodGym tasks will be done in the dark. Christian brought along Andrea who has promised to bring us all Pastel de Natas next time! Mike met us at the farm and split us into 3 groups to work on the maturing compost heaps; 'terminating' the flower beds; and tackling the tomatoes in the (poly) tunnels. We managed to say hello to the alpacas in the dusk who we learned are brothers who have loud arguments and upset the neighbours! We heard them bickering later! We, however all got on famously, as usual!

On a lovely, sunny Autumn morning, we headed to meet Lynn at Beckhill Community Garden to help out with some weeding and wood chipping. They're getting ready to plant some bulbs next month, so we were helping to prepare the garden for that.

I brought my two little dogs with me who provided cuddles & entertainment & one found what looked like a dead mouse & ate the whole thing...I have a feeling she might pay for that later!

Thanks for a great morning all.
