Another Monday in the Toon, and another day of downpours. However, Zeus was very kind and graced us with a lovely evening in the sun.

A big welcome to Michelle on her first GoodGym session.

With all the recent soggy weather, the steps up towards The Cumberland Arms, were in need of summer trim. And armed with a couple of different garden tools, we made our way up, cutting back the foliage, making everything more accessible, and getting some nice compliments from the public as we worked.

Once we reached the top, we made our way to the main road, to cut back a couple of bigger encroaching trees. It was definitely a lovely way to spend an hour or so, and the heavens opened once more not long after we had all said our goodbyes - I hope everyone didn't get too wet!

And as Led Zeppelin once sang: *If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now It's just a spring clean for the Goodgym crew*
