When the deadwood hedge went over the rolling hill - A beautiful sky, a wonderful day Whip-crack-away, whip-crack-away, whip-crack-away
2 GoodGymers made their way 5.0km to help the Orchard Share in Bath.

THE TREE' mendous Two
ran 5k to Northend to prune apple trees for Orchardshare.
TWAS a WET N WINDY MORNING on the hillside but that didn't deter an already soaked pair of lovely Goodgym ladies from tackling the hill up to Northend orchard.
SHEILA,TIM and KEITH were pleased to see us even though we were lacking in numbers for support for our January challenge.
Mary set to laying a DEAD WOOD HEDGE with Sheila whilst Steph took saw in hand to learn how to prune an apple tree successfully without removing more than 25% of the growth.
1 HOUR LATER
TIME FOR A CUPPA to warm up out hands and chat about toad patrol at Charlcombe lane for a future task, now that's exciting stuff.
High Ho ! and off we go back down the steep hill. We promise to return on March 3rd to continue pruning away and hopefully with a few more helpful hands
THANKS MARY FIR BACK MARKING AND TODAYS PUN ...HA!!!
Oh, my throat's as dry as a desert thistle in May In the Golden Garter, gonna wet my whistle today Last to the bar's a three-legged crow Set 'em up Joe, set 'em up Joe, set 'em up Joe Set 'em up Joe
