5 Goodgymmers proved they weren't afraid of the dark by lending a hand at a very spookily lit Floyde's Garden on a lovely, wet autumn night.

The turning of the worm

The good folk at Floyde's Garden are having some work done, creating a paving area to frame a whole bunch of new natural planting. However, the ground was chockablock with a multitude of very illegal and very aromatic three cornered leeks that needed to be dug up.

Our Goodgymmers brought their own lights as the proper pros they are and were on their knees even before slow ol' Gramps had a chance to do a proper risk assessment. Ain't nobody got time for that.

Conversation on the night included weighing the benefits of wild foraging against the use of fox urine as a cooking ingredient, the likelihood of finding Lord Lucan in one of the many holes we dug up, the futility of life expressed quite dramatically by the unnamed Goodgymmer who attempted to use a rusty paint stripper and a screwdriver in place of a trowel, and one of our regulars spent most of her evening engaged in very one-sided chat with every single worm we dug up. It takes all sorts.

Join Dave and Latoya at Traid next week for more fun and games!
