Goodness me, that was a busy one! It was lovely to have so many GoodGymers along this evening, and very much needed!

Our task was to remove a LOT of wood, metal and boxes from the Library of Things storeroom down three flights of stairs, two sets of doors, up in a service lift and across to a skip. We split in to three teams - Dave and Richard were Team Skip, then Val, Judy, Ranjitha and Louisa were the Corridor Runners. The rest of the team were the tasked with getting all of the oddly-shaped and awkwardly weighted items down from the store room.

There was some amazing team work this evening, and nobody fell down any stairs, or into a skip! We did briefly lose Sinéad in a recycling bin, but we won't worry about that!

Thank you to Val for the report title - she got all Burdock-burred-up at Nore Barn Wood!

The Friends group were all ready for a battle with the brambles and nettles - between us we cleared 4 woodland glades to let in enough light for the bluebells and other wildflowers to show their faces next Spring.

This was truly a good gym workout - plenty of sweaty brows and aerobic exercise - healthy woodland medicine for the body and soul.

Bravo brave GGers, battling with high winds, inside-out bags and bored or bemused pet dogs!

We each chose a beach or river to litter-pick during September, getting out in the fresh air to join the Marine Conservation Society's campaign to clean Britain's coasts and inland waters.

Well done for taking a moment from your month to make a small difference that adds up to a big impact.
