In tonight's task: Goodgym Greenwich foil the Rhubarb plot at Prince Phillip Maritime Collection Centre...

An unseasonably mild 5th November saw 8 GoodGymers make their way to Prince Phillip Maritime Collection Centre in Kidbrooke, where our tasks often involve gilded ceilings, or work in the thriving community garden.

A veritable rainbow of fireworks guided us on our run, and once at the task we sparked into life in the community garden area, cutting back some amazing smelling but slightly overgrown rosemary, weeding the woodchip paths, and clearing wilted tomato plants. A sad part of the task involved removing a giant sunflower (a definite sign that Winter is Coming...) but a cut back of the huge Rhubarb plant provided a great harvest we'll be stalking about for weeks.

The run home loomed, and we managed not to crumble, however being accompanied by the flash, bangs and whizzes of fireworks, poor Rhubarb was unable to utter the immortal lines of "It's all gone quiet..."

On Sunday we've got Clean up Charlton and next wednesday we're leafleting for Age Exchange.

Thank you all & catch up soon!

Once we tick into November we all know it's time to send out the flyers for the Age Exchange Christmas Fayre and if you're a Greenwich group runner as well then you potentially get double the fun of spreading the word for this great event that raised money for the charity.

We all decided to walk to the start of our flyering where we were met by Oli who has been out of action for too long but now back and ready to get stuck in!!

We divided into 2 groups to tackle one side of the roads and the roads leading off it and then regrouped at Majestic wines. And it all went smoothly, everyone headed the warnings about not posting through letter boxes if we heard dogs and abiding by no junk mail.

Next week we're doing the same again bit the top half of the road. See you there!
