So it's been more than 6 months since we've been able to join our lovely friends / pen pals at Prince Rupert Court sheltered accommodation and they sure appeared happy to see us. 3 GoodGym ladies attended on this fine evening and we were met by Dominique who explained the 2 jobs that were awaiting us: a tidy up of the veggie patch and a change of use for one of the raised flower beds to a water feature. Tracey tidied the vegetable patch alongside Leslie who is one of the residents. The cabbages were pulled up, the strawberries looked ready to eat then uh oh!! No, the cabbages didn't need to be pulled just a good trim of the outside leaves to be left in the kitchen for the residents use. So the cabbages were duly replanted, trimmed and everyone was happy. In the meantime Lily and Gina were directed to the garden along the side of the building where another resident, Shirley, wanted our help to change a raised bed into a water feature. Lily got stuck right in wasting no time in grabbing the wheelbarrow and removing the conifer and Gina assisted with the removal of 2 other shrubs these we replanted into empty containers outside the laundry room. Back to the raised bed with the wheelbarrow we then removed bulbs and weeds in readiness for the membrane to be laid and a covering of small stones. Shirley appeared with said water feature and the destructions were read out loud uh oh!! So, Shirley thought she had bought a solar powered water feature but it was actually an electrical one so with no power supply the job was aborted and poor Shirley was dismayed but we did agree to go back when she sourced a new product and complete the job. A small gathering of residents were there to oversee our good work and we discussed how it is usual that when we attend PRC we are all drowned by a deluge of rain so it was a pleasure to leave dry this time.
