Alternative working title Lino Ritchie. Apologies for any songs that may now stay in your head for a few hours.
Tonight we found the bottom of the pond!! It was an exciting moment as the lining of the pond was revealed - although there were plenty of theories as to what it was before "pond liner" was settled on.
We carried three new empty planters round from the side of the school into the garden and the challenge was to first clear a piece of ground flat enough for them to sit on, then to fill them with the nicely composted soil from the old pond site. A classic GoodGym task. These will be planted up with veg seeds by the school kids in the next few weeks and the wellbeing garden will begin to take shape.
We also unearthed a huge amount of old plastic including many crisp packets. We had a good reminisce about old crisp flavours, especially the anti social ones and discovered that we had a split in the Monster Munch camp - roast beef vs pickled onion!
A small number of GoodGymers tonight but a good solid amount of lifting, shifting and digging done.
