This week we were joined by a special guest - Caitlin from Islington, who's usually all tied up with work on a Wednesday lunchtime, but took a whole week off so she could join us for this task (or something like that).

It had been a windy week, meaning the none-too-strong bamboo sticks which were supposed to hold up the tomato plants had collapsed into the earth.

So we first had to entangle those that had fallen into each other, remove a few dead bits and then hope we could defy gravity and get them upright again - using as a guide the digits representing Caitlin's 111 good deeds.

A further issue was getting the poles deep enough into the earth to hold firm. But we got there in the end - getting the more reluctant poles all tied up to their neighbours - and can only hope that a small breeze won't bring everything down again.

Finally, good luck to Maria with her job application - even though it might mean we see her less often at midday GoodGym tasks
