That was definitely the coldest session we've had for a lonnngggg time! Having said that, it didn't stop 8 GoodGymers well prepared to complete an outdoor good deed.

We visited St Alban Church to give their outdoor furniture a coat of varnish so it survives the winter. There were 3 wooden picnic tables and a wooden boat for us to do.

It was a very efficient task, probably as it was too cold to hang about! Nonetheless, it didn't hinder plenty of puns with the word 'deck' in an Australian accent.

As this week's task was a long way from our usual starting point, we met in the car park of the Brickmakers Pub (sadly the pub wasn't open!) before heading on a 2km each-way jog to Aslake Community Growers.

A big shout out to Mark who was completing his 50th good deed!

There were two tasks to do this evening. One was to move and manoeuvre some lights (that were attached to scaffolding poles) from one greenhouse to another, so that both greenhouses have lighting ahead of the dark winter months. This required a lot of brain thought to say the least as the poles were long and heavy.

The other task was to extend and double up one of the rows of plant stations.

Both tasks were rather physical and involved plenty of lifting and mindful placing.

A cracking job my everyone.
