I arrived at Mr J and Mrs A’s house in Osterley to pick up where a previous Goodgymer had begun, trimming bushes and cutting back brambles, a few weeks ago.

Today’s easy squeezy challenge was to shred as much of the leftover brambles a previous Goodgymer had had to leave behind because they’d filled the garden waste bin the last time they were here. The pile had diminished a little bit but still the extent of their work was obvious.

Surfice to say I couldn’t possibly emulate the most efficient and diminutive Goodgymer in the West of London. But I did manage to condense the older brambles and add a further somewhat diminutive pile of my own.

As there is still lots to do and there was only time for any hour’s gardening today, I’ll be heading back to Mr J’s next week for part III, weather permitting.

Maybe the next instalment of the Osterley garden trilogy will be as entertaining as the original task report which you can read here https://www.goodgym.org/v3/reports/applied-squeezology
